I implore Thee, O Thou Fashioner of the nations and the King
of eternity, to guard Thy handmaidens within the tabernacle of Thy chastity,
and to cancel such of their deeds as are unworthy of Thy days. Purge out, then,
from them, O my God, all doubts and idle fancies, and sanctify them from
whatsoever becometh not their kinship with Thee, O Thou Who art the Lord of
names, and the Source of utterance. Thou art He in Whose grasp are the reins of
the entire creation.
No God is there but Thee, the Almighty, the Most Exalted,
the All-Glorious, the Self-Subsisting.
-Baha’u’llah (‘Prayers and Meditations
by Baha’u’llah’)
