To the Secretary of the Assembly
“Verily, I have read thine eloquent letter and brilliant writing, which indicated the attraction of the people of God by the fragrances of His Kingdom, and their gathering in the assembly of the merciful feelings and the congregation of the upright.”
O thou Secretary of the meanings emanated from the
hearts of the people of the Kingdom.
1 / 4
Verily, I have read thine eloquent letter and brilliant
writing, which indicated the attraction of the people of God by the
fragrances of His Kingdom, and their gathering in the assembly of the
merciful feelings and the congregation of the upright.
2 / 4
I do supplicate God to confirm that spiritual assembly,
that gathering of commemoration, to that whereby the merciful faces
brighten, and I beseech Him to assist them and thee to that whereby
man ascends the highest and noblest station of excellence and the
loftiest apex of honor, to make them humble and courteous before the
beloved of God, to become severed from aught else save God, to
beseech the Kingdom of ABHA, to be freed from every mention save the
commemoration of God, and to be sanctified from all the grades of
passion and desire, with pure, holy hearts which are devoid of every
feeling except entire attention unto God, the Lord of the present and
the world to come.

I have written answers to the letters which thou hast
sent and I enclose them with this Tablet. I wrote also a Tablet to
the assembly; read it unto them with a fluent tongue and a heart overflowing with
the love of God.
