..[the Bab's Writings] were commentaries on, and interpretations of the verses of the Kuran; some were prayers, homilies, and hints of (the true significances of certain) passages, other were exhortations, admonitions, dissertations on the different branches of the doctrine of Divine Unity.. encouragements to amendment of character, severance from worldly states, and dependence on the inspirations of God. But the essence and purport of his compositions were the praises and descriptions of that Reality soon to appear.. "I am a letter out of that most mighty book and a dew drop from that limitless ocean, and, when He shall appear, my true nature, my mysteries, riddles, and intimations will become evident.." at remembrance of Him did he rejoice. (A Traveller's Narrative)
(19:3)
