m's Lights!
Verily, I am informed of thine earnest desire for the Kingdom of God, thy
sparkling by the love of God and thy longing for the service of the sacred
and effulgent Threshold. I pray God to kindle and light the lamp of
knowledge in the glass of thy heart, so that it may shine upon all parts
of the world and bring thy husband to the life by the Spirit of Life,
assist thee to announce the good news by the illuminating Light, and
remove the covering of thy sight so that thou mayest see God's Beauty and
His Essential Perfection, His astonishing profusion and His appearance to
the hearts and spirits. ***

O thou who art turned to the Kingdom of the Lord, the Forgiving!
With prayers and supplications and with submissive songs of the Texts of
