May 9

We, verily, enjoined the people of the Bayán to wear silken garments and to be immaculate in their person and dress, that His [Baha'u'llah's] gaze might not fall upon aught that would displease Him. Likewise, every provision that hath been expounded in Our perspicuous Book is but for His sake, were ye to judge fairly. We created the heavens and the earth and all that lieth between them for His loved ones, how much more for the sake of His most resplendent, His most glorious and radiant beauty. And yet ye have laid hold on that which We have destined for Him and seized upon it to reject My Beloved. What hath made you so heedless, O people of malice? And what will satisfy you in this day, O stirrers of sedition? 

- Baha’u’llah  (From a Tablet in which He speaks in the voice of the Báb [based on footnotes to the Tablet]; ‘Days of Remembrance’)
