Guard them then from the aggressor, from him who hath become a shameless
and blasphemous doer of wrong.
Verily, Thy lovers thirst, O my Lord; lead them to the wellspring of
bounty and grace. Verily, they hunger; send down unto them Thy heavenly
table. Verily, they are naked; robe them in the garments of learning and
knowledge.
Heroes are they, O my Lord, lead them to the field of battle. Guides are
they, make them to speak out with arguments and proofs. Ministering
servants are they, cause them to pass round the cup that brimmeth with the
wine of certitude. O my God, make them to be songsters that carol in fair
gardens, make them lions that couch in the thickets, whales that plunge in
the vasty deep.
Verily, Thou art He of abounding grace. There is none other God save Thee,
the Mighty, the Powerful, the Ever-Bestowing.
--'Abdu'l-Baha
