      The Báb departed from Búshihr on His pilgrimage. [Bab57; MH119, 121, GPB9]
    • He instructed His followers to await His arrival in Karbalá. [DB86, 87; MH122; SBBH1:23]
    • He had been awaiting the letter from Mullá Husayn before starting on His pilgrimage. [DB123; MH117]

    • It was slow, stormy and unsteady sailing and the passengers were in constant dispute amongst themselves. [DB129note2]

He goes on to attribute the Industrial Revolution to the impulse of the Revelation.
