By the righteousness of God, my Well-Beloved! I have never aspired after worldly leadership.
My sole purpose hath been to hand down unto men
that which I was bidden to deliver by God, the Gracious,
the Incomparable, that it may detach them
from all that pertaineth to this world, and cause them
to attain such heights as neither the ungodly can
conceive, nor the froward imagine. |
