e Ever-living One (He who liveth and dieth not), to make
thee a lamp shininng with the lights of knowledge in those far-distant
horizons and vast countries.

Verily, I say unto thee, the Covenant of God and His Alliance is a Lamp
diffusing lights from the Supreme Concourse unto the horizons of the earth
and heaven. Whosoever hath this Divine Lamp before his face, his forehead
shall glisten with manifest light and his speech shall take effect in all

Verily, the bounty of the Kingdom is unlimited and the favors of the Lord
of Majesty are like unto the rains of springtime.
