Speed out of your sepulchers. How long
will ye sleep? The second blast hath been blown on the trumpet. On whom are ye
gazing? This is your Lord, the God of Mercy. Witness how ye gainsay His signs!
The earth hath quaked with a great quaking, and cast forth her burdens. Will ye
not admit it? Say: Will ye not recognize how the mountains have become like
flocks of wool, how the people are sore vexed at the awful majesty of the Cause
of God? Witness how their houses are empty ruins, and they themselves a drowned
host.
(Baha’u’llah, ’Gleanings form the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
