"The Creator of all things labored on
into the fourth day.
Once he paused and, more thoughtfully than at any time
before, created something that was not alive. He hung
a small moon just outside the earth's skies.
With that done, Creator placed a massive ball at the
very center of the nine tiny planets. He touched it,
and the giant ball burst into boiling fire that lit up
the world of nine planets.
And at the same instant that the Lord lit the earth's
sun, he created stars also--a hundred billion balls of
twinkling light.
The splendor of earth's sun filled the day, while at
night earth's moon reflected the glory of the sun.
'More pictures! More pictures of our Lord!' observed a
delighted Exalta. . . .
And so it was, for the entire sixth day was given over
wholly to creating new forms of life. And each
time their Lord created, the angels observed that
the form of life he brought forth was a little higher
than the one before. Nor was it lost on them that,
each time he created, the pictures of himself, which
he wove so skillfully into each creature, grew more
distinct.
It was midway through the sixth day that the Lord
created one that was more like himself than any other
living thing. The entire angelic host encircled this
tiny creature, singing to it with mingled honor and
awe.
'Our Lord has created such a beautiful likeness of
himself!'
'Yes--one more complete than all others.'
'An almost perfect picture of all his ways, his nature,
and his glory,' whispered Exalta.
They were speaking, of course, of a little lamb."

"Can I do some labor for you?' Quan saw in the
jailer's eyes surprise mixed with contempt. 'This
prison is so filthy,' Quan said, 'There is waste
everywhere. The rats and roaches feed on it.' . . .
'Let me go into the cells one by one and clean up
this filthy place. Give me water and a brush and
soap, and I will show you what I can do! My Father,
Li Tong, was a street sweeper, a great cleaner of
the ground, the finest in China. And I am my father's
son!'" Li Quan, p. 274,
