O concourse of earth
and heaven! This is that first night, which God hath made to be a sign of that
second night whereon was born He Whom no praise can befittingly extol and no
attribute describe. Well is it with him who reflecteth upon them both: Verily,
he will find their outer reality to correspond to their inner essence, and will
become acquainted with the divine mysteries that lie enshrined in this
Revelation, a Revelation through which the foundations of misbelief have been
shaken, the idols of superstition have been shattered, and the banner hath been
unfurled which proclaimeth, “No God is there but Him, the Powerful, the
Exalted, the Incomparable, the Protector, the Mighty, the Inaccessible.”
