Of All The Peoples Of The World, They That Have Suffered
Categories: THE CLERGY AND PEOPLE OF VARIOUS FAITHSOF all the peoples of the world, they that have suffered the greatest loss
have been, and are still, the people of Persia. I swear by the Day Star of
Utterance which shineth upon the world in its meridian glory! The
lamentations of the pulpits, in that country, are being raised
continually. In the early days such lamentations were heard in the Land of
Ta (Tihran), for pulpits, erected for the purpose of remembering the True
One--exalted be His glory--have now, in Persia, become places wherefrom
blasphemies are uttered against Him Who is the Desire of the worlds.
