The letter of Mrs ... was considered and for thy sake a letter was written her. It is enclosed. (242:1) I pray God and supplicate the Threshold of Mercy for both of you that you may attain to that which is the will of God and may be aided and strengthened (while) in this mortal world. (242:2) There is much work and I have not the leisure to write more than this. (242:3) Verily, I greet thee from this White Place, the bright, blessed Holy Land, and say: "Greeting and praise and blessings and glory be upon thee, O thou believer in God, and (O thou) enkindled by the fire of the love of God! (242:4) "Verily, the Lord of Hosts shall watch thee with the gaze of the eye of favor and shall assist thee in a matter whereby thy breast shall rejoice and thine eye shall brighten and thine affairs shall be arranged and composed from all directions." (242:5) Therefore, thou wilt call and say: "Blessing be upon me for this great favor and for this manifest success!" (242:6) Verily, I saw thy photograph and was rejoiced by perceiving thy illumined likeness, which proved the purity of thy heart and thy being well directed unto God.
(242:7)
