O thou servant of the Blessed Perfection! Since I have found this paper very eloquent, I send it to Persia. (498:2)

O thou dear friend! I entreat from His Highness the Desired One that He may grant divine confirmation to that illumined youth to such an extent that he may become the main-spring of spiritual emotions in those regions. (498:3)

Convey respectful greeting with the utmost longing to all the friends of God on behalf of this servant. (498:4)

Thy letters were received. Although thou hast complained on account of not receiving answers to the petitions of the people, yet thou hast no right to do so, for the letters coming from those regions are like unto a sea-- who is able to answer all of them? Some of the letters are not received and this is not the fault of the friends and, as the administration of the post is not well organized, many letters are lost in the mail. But to those letters which are received, God willing, no neglect will be displayed so far as there is time to answer them. (498:5)
