O my Lord,
by him and by his exile and his imprisonment,
to send down upon such as loved him what will quiet their hearts and bless
their works.
Potent art Thou to do as Thou willest.
No God is there but
Thee,
the Almighty,
the Most Powerful.
Praised be Thou,
O my God!
I beseech Thee by them who have circled round
the throne of Thy will,
and soared in the atmosphere of Thy good-pleasure,
and turned with all their affections towards the Horizon of Thy Revelation
and the Day-Spring of Thine inspiration,
and the Dawning-Place of Thy
names,
to aid Thy servants to observe what Thou hast commanded them in Thy
days--commandments through which the sacredness of Thy Cause will be
demonstrated unto Thy servants and the affairs of Thy creatures and of Thy
realm will be set aright.
I testify,
O my God,
that this is the Day whereon Thy testimony hath been
fulfilled,
and Thy clear tokens have been manifested,
and Thine utterances
have been revealed,
and Thy signs have been demonstrated,
and the radiance
of Thy countenance hath been diffused,
and Thy proof hath been perfected,
and Thine ascendancy hath been established,
and Thy mercy hath overflowed,
and the Day-Star of Thy grace hath shone forth with such brilliance that
Thou didst manifest Him Who is the Revealer of Thyself and the Treasury of
Thy wisdom and the Dawning-Place of Thy majesty and power.
Thou didst
establish His covenant with every one who hath been created in the
kingdoms of earth and heaven and in the realms of revelation and of
creation.
Thou didst raise Him up to such heights that the wrongs
inflicted by the oppressors have been powerless to deter Him from
revealing Thy sovereignty,
and the ascendancy of the wayward hath failed
to prevent Him from demonstrating Thy power and from exalting Thy Cause.
So highly didst Thou exalt Him that He openly delivered unto the kings Thy
messages and commandments,
and hath never for one moment sought His own
protection,
but striven to protect Thy servants from whatever might
withhold them from approaching the kingdom of Thy nearness,
and from
setting their faces towards the horizon of Thy good-pleasure.
Thou seest,
O my God,
how,
notwithstanding the swords that are drawn
against Him,
He calleth the nations unto Thee,
and though Himself a
prisoner summoneth them to turn in the direction of Thy gifts and
bounties.
With every fresh tribulation He manifested a fuller measure of
Thy Cause,
and exalted more highly Thy word.
I testify that through Him the Pen of the Most High was set in motion,
and
with His remembrance the Scriptures in the kingdom of names were
embellished.
Through Him Thy fragrances were wafted,
and the sweet smell
of Thy raiment was shed abroad amongst all the dwellers of the earth and
the inmates of heaven.
Thou seest and knowest full well,
O my God,
how He
hath been made to dwell within the most desolate of cities,
so that He may
build up the hearts of Thy servants,
