O Pen of Glory! Intone the anthems of grandeur, for We have
inhaled the fragrance of reunion at the approach of that Day whereon the
kingdom of names was adorned with the ornament of Our Name, the Exalted, the
Most High. No sooner was this Day mentioned before the Throne than the Maids of
Heaven chanted a wondrous melody, the Nightingale pealed out its heavenly song,
and the All-Merciful gave voice to that which enraptured the souls of the Messengers
of God, His chosen ones, and those who enjoy near access to Him.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Days of Remembrance’)
