Thou hast made the wish for the great martyrdom
in the path of Baha', that thou mayest become intoxicated
with that overflowing cup and sacrifice this

mayest walk in the road of faithfulness and show forth
firmness and steadfastness for the sake of the love of
Baha'.

present this very attitude is sacrifice and martyrdom.
Blessed art thou, and again, blessed art thou!***
