The Hidden Words of Bahá'u'lláh
Part II--From the Persian
27
O SON OF DUST!
All that is in heaven and earth I have ordained
for thee, except the human heart, which I have
made the habitation of My beauty and glory; yet
thou didst give My home and dwelling to another
than Me; and whenever the manifestation of My
holiness sought His own abode, a stranger found
He there, and, homeless, hastened unto the sanctuary
of the Beloved. Notwithstanding I have concealed
thy secret and desired not thy shame.
