In another connection hath the Voice of the Bayán called
aloud from the loftiest branches. He saith—blessed and glorified be He: “In the
year nine ye will attain unto all good.” On another occasion He saith: “In the
year nine ye will attain unto the Presence of God.” These melodies, uttered by
the Birds of the cities of Knowledge, conform with that which hath been sent
down by the All-Merciful in the Qur’án. Blessed are the men of insight; blessed
they that attain thereunto.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Epistle to the Son of the Wolf’)
