When in Bahá'í history
O thou bird of the Rose-garden of the Love of God!
Thank thou God that, through the utterances of Mrs. ........., thou hast heard of the universe of the Kingdom, thy heart recognized (the Truth), thine eyes became seeing and thy soul became mindful. Shouldst thou remain firm and steadfast in faith, the desire of thy heart and soul will become realized, thou wilt find the utmost joy and wilt be assisted in visiting the holy Threshold.
