Well aware of the impending trials that were to afflict Him,
the Báb had, ere His final separation from His family, bequeathed to His mother
and His wife all His possessions, had confided to the latter the secret of what
was to befall Him, and revealed for her a special prayer the reading of which,
He assured her, would resolve her perplexities and allay her sorrows.
