Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! O Mariner! Teach them that are within the ark that which we have taught thee behind the mystic veil, (223:1) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! Perchance they may not tarry in the sacred snow- white spot, (223:2) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! But may soar upon the wings of the spirit unto that station which the Lord hath exalted above all mention in the worlds below, (223:3) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! May wing through space even as the favored birds in the realm of eternal reunion; (223:4) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! May know the mysteries hidden in the Seas of light (223:5) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! They passed the grades of worldly limitations and reached that of the divine unity, the center of heavenly guidance (223:6) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! They have desired to ascend unto that state which the Lord hath ordained to be above their stations (223:7) Glorified be my Lord, the All- Glorious! Whereupon the burning meteor cast them out from them that abide in the Kingdom of His Presence,
(223:8)
