I'll save you the time (unless you've already looked it up).

Delta-vee = Ve * ln®

Where Ve is the rocket's exhaust velocity, ln(x) is the natural logarithm of a number x, and R is the ratio between the mass of the rocket on a full tank and the mass of the rocket on an empty tank.
"And it appeared to Ransom that there might, if a man could find it, be some way to renew the old Pagan practice of propitiating the local gods of unknown places in such fashion that it was no offence to God Himself but only a prudent and courteous apology for trespass."
