O thou who art turning unto the Kingdom of God, and
looking unto the Day-spring of the lights of God!

I, with the utmost joy and cheerfulness, have
perused the contents of thy letter, which shows thy
faith in God, thy assurance in the Kingdom of God,
the gladness of thy breast in hearing the voice of God
and the adherence of thy heart to the word of God.

O servant of God! rejoice through the glad-tidings
of God, be happy by the wafting of the fragrance of
God, and cling to the Kingdom of God in such wise
that it makes thee separate thyself from the world and
kindle in thy heart the fire of the love of God to such
an extent that any one who approaches thee will feel
its warmth; and if thou desirest to attain to this station,
thou shouldst turn thyself wholly unto God. Perhaps
an illumination will descend upon thee by which
the fragrances of God will be diffused throughout those
regions and districts and thou wilt be a lamp of guidance
from which the lights of knowledge will emanate
and spread in those far countries and distant lands.
