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

1 |
O thou esteemed maid-servant of God!
|
2 |
Be thou hopeful and be thou happy and rejoiced.
For I have supplicated and beseeched before the Threshold
of the Almighty that thy wish may be realized,
so thou mayest overcome the self and perform charitable
deeds and that the human perfections may appear from
thee; that thou mayest be endowed with lofty gifts;
find thy way to divine wisdom and show forth the manners
and conduct of those who are favored in the
Threshold of the Almighty.

The essence of all exhortation is that thou shouldst
abandon thyself and sacrifice life, body and heart for
the Beloved One of the world.
