"Iron," 20.
Dorcas Saxtorph:
"...scribbled a cross in the air and murmured, 'Into Your hands -' for unlike her husband, she believed the universe was more than an accident." (p. 157)
Poul Anderson's characters accurately reflect the entire gamut of belief and unbelief and this one gives us yet another appropriate Biblical reference.

Kaor, Paul!
And for Dorcas to make the Sign of the Cross makes me think she, like Nicholas van Rijn, was a Catholic.
And you seemed to have picked up on my recent use here of the word "gamut." (Smiles)
Ad astra! Sean
