irit by the
fragrances of God, held firm to the love of God and God helped thee
through the trials. This we heralded unto thee before and it was an
ordained and firm promise.

Draw night unto God and perservere in (thy) communion with (or prayer to)
thy Lord, so that the fire of God's love may glow more luminously in the
heart, its heat grow stronger and give warmth to that region and its sound
reach the Supreme Concourse.

"O thou maid-servant of God!..."

O thou maid-servant of God!

Truly, I say, complete capacity and ability is the cause of the appearance
of the divine gifts. Souls are many who in the years gone by have listened

its value will become known and evident in the divine Kingdom, and even in
this mortal world its value shall appear in future. In the days of Christ,
guidance had no importance whatever to the deniers; now consider how much
importance it hath gained.

Turn thou with thy heart ot he divine Kingdom and supplicate to Him,
(saying):

""O Compassionate God! Thanks be to Thee for..."

"O Compassionate God! Thanks be to Thee for Thou hast awakened and made
(me) conscious. Thou hast given me a seeing eye and favored me with a
