art encouraging
the shaking hearts and making them more firm and solid, and about the
facilitations thou hast made for the promotion of the utterances of God
amongst the people. By the Life of God! the angels of heaven magnify thee,
the Supreme Concourse praise thee, the party of the Kingdom of El-Abha
announce to thee the glad-tidings and the hosts of the unseen assist thee
and render thee victorious through the banners of Baha.

I have answered the two supplications sent through thee by two newly
guided servants.

"O thou honorable lady!..."

O thou honorable lady!

Verily, I received thy excellent letter and read it and my heart was
gladdened with its content, which shows thy guidance. Thou hast--praise be
unto God!--entered under the shadow of the Kingdom of God and become one of
the sheep of God; [entered] under the education of the Holy Shepherd, who
hath sacrificed His soul and body, as well as His grades, to His subjects.

As to the letters which thou hast sent, I forward to thee their answers
through this letter and thou wilt send them to the owners; thereby thou
wilt be rewarded in the Kingdom of God, since thou hast guided those souls
unto the Right Path, and caused them to enter the Kingdom of God. El-Baha
be upon thee!

O thou who art advancing towards God!

I have already read thy letter sent to his honor, ..... May God confirm
and strengthen thee to serve His Cause and to enable thee to speak His
praise among the maid-servants of the Merciful, and to call out in His
name in those regions and climes; so that thou mayest work in the vineyard
of God with thy heart severed from aught else save God, and overflowing
with the waters of the knowledge of God.

We have herewith written answers to the three supplications which thou
hast sent.

Rejoice at the glad-tidings of God, in this day wherein the fragrances of
holiness have perfumed the nostrils of all in the universe!

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

O thou maid-servant of God!

I was informed of the contents of thy letter and rejoiced with the
fragrances which are being diffused from the garden of its texts. It
showed that thou art inebriated with the wine of the love of God and moved
by the breezes of acceptance which are blowing from the point of the favor
of God.

By my life, I was rejoiced at thy humility, submissiveness, lowliness and
meekness in the Cause of God, i
