O Lord my God!
Rain down,
I beseech Thee,
from the
clouds of Thine overflowing grace,
that which shall cleanse the hearts of
Thy servants from whatever may prevent their beholding Thy face,
or may
prevent them from turning unto Thee,
that they may all recognize Him Who
is their Fashioner and Creator.
Help them,
then,
O God,
to reach forth,
through the power of Thy sovereign might,
towards such a station that they
can readily distinguish every foul smell from the fragrance of the raiment
of Him Who is the Bearer of Thy most lofty and exalted name,
that they may
turn with all their affections toward Thee,
and may enjoy such intimate
communion with Thee that if all that is in heaven and on earth were given
them they would regard it as unworthy of their notice,
and would refuse to
cease from remembering Thee and from extolling Thy virtues.
Shield,
I pray Thee,
O my Beloved,
my heart's Desire,
Thy servant who hath
sought Thy face,
from the darts of them that have denied Thee and from the
shafts of such as have repudiated Thy Truth.
Cause him,
then,
to be wholly
devoted to Thee,
to declare Thy name,
and to fix his gaze upon the
sanctuary of Thy Revelation.
Thou art,
in truth,
He Who,
at no time,
hath
turned away those who have set their hopes in Thee from the door of Thy
mercy,
nor prevented such as have sought Thee from attaining the court of
Thy grace.
No God is there but Thee,
the Most Powerful,
the All-Highest,
the Help in Peril,
the All-Glorious,
the All-Compelling,
the
Unconditioned.
Magnified,
O Lord my God,
be Thy Name,
whereby the trees of the garden of
Thy Revelation have been clad with verdure,
and been made to yield the
fruits of holiness during this Springtime when the sweet savors of Thy
favors and blessings have been wafted over all things,
and caused them to
bring forth whatsoever had been preordained for them in the Kingdom of
Thine irrevocable decree and the Heaven of Thine immutable purpose.
I
beseech Thee by this very Name not to suffer me to be far from the court
of Thy holiness,
nor debarred from the exalted sanctuary of Thy unity and
oneness.
Ignite,
then,
O my God,
within my breast the fire of Thy love,
that its
flame may burn up all else except my remembrance of Thee,
that every trace
of corrupt desire may be entirely mortified within me,
and that naught may
remain except the glorification of Thy transcendent and all-glorious
Being.
This is my highest aspiration,
mine ardent desire,
O Thou Who
