In the first line of the Tablet it is recorded and written,
and within the sanctuary of the tabernacle of God is hidden:
O MY SERVANT! Abandon not for that which perisheth an
everlasting dominion, and cast not away celestial sovereignty for a worldly
desire. This is the river of everlasting life that hath flowed from the
well-spring of the pen of the merciful; well is it with them that drink! (Baha’u’llah,
