"O thou dear maid-servant of God!..."

1

O thou dear maid-servant of God!

2

Thy letter, concerning the celebration of the anniversary of the declaration of His Holiness the Supreme [The BAB.] -- may my spirit be sacrificed for Him! -- which was held on the land of the Mashrak-el-Azcar [Site of Temple at Chicago, Ill.] , was read.

3

The utmost joy was attained, for -- praise be to God! -- the friends of the Merciful passed some time on that day joyous and singing in the land of the Mashrak-el-Azcar and enjoyed commemorating the Lord of the verses with the greatest joy.

4

That melody was heard by the Supreme Concourse and that rose-song of the nightingale of faithfulness gladdened the people of the rose-garden of ABHA.

5

I am hopeful that, during the coming Rizwan [April 21, 1909.] , a great feast shall be held in the land of the Mashrak-el-Azcar, a spiritual celebration prepared and the melodies of the violin and the mandoline and hymns in praise and glorification of the Lord of Hosts make all the audience joyous and ecstatic.

6

A few days ago an epistle was written -- therefore, brevity is considered here.

7

Treat thy dear daughter, for me, with the utmost kindness and, likewise, the other friends and maid-servants of the Merciful.
