edy of the ailments of the world of man and the dressing for the

Salvation, the Magnet of the Everlasting Glory and the penetrative power
in the reality of man!
"O thou dear wise man!..."
O thou dear wise man!
They letter *** was considered. Its contents were in the utmost of beauty
and great joy was realized therefrom.
Thou hast asked "Is it possible that this new and living Cause is to take
