“O ye esteemed maid-servants of God, and ye revered…” |
O ye

esteemed maid-servants of God, and ye revered
beloved ones (or men believers) of the Merciful!

Your letter was received and its contents noted. The
maid-servant of God, she who hath ascended to heaven,
i.e., Mrs. ….…., hastened from this mortal world
to the divine world and soared from this temporal
realm to the expanse of the Kingdom. She abandoned
the earthly cage and flew toward the bower of the upper
world; so that, like unto a nightingale of significances,
she may, in that divine rose-garden, engage in praising,
glorifying and sanctifying the True One, with the most
marvelous melody.

Praise be to God! the divine bounty favors all of
you, he doors of gifts are open before the faces of
you all, and the radiance of the Sun of Truth is shining
upon you all. Capacity, worth (or merit) and ability,
are necessary, for the clearer and purer the mirror is,
the lights of the Sun are more manifest thereon.
