3.

 

“Burst thy cage asunder”

 

 

 

O SON OF SPIRIT!

Burst thy cage asunder,

and even as the phoenix of love

soar into the firmament of holiness.

Renounce thyself

 and, filled with the spirit of mercy,

abide in the realm of celestial sanctity.

 

 

(Bahá’u’lláh:  Persian Hidden Words, No.38)
