Only heart to heart can speak the bliss of mystic knowers;
No messenger can tell it and no missive bear it. 2
I am silent from weakness on many a matter,
For my words could not reckon them and my speech would fall short. 3
O friend, till thou enter the garden of such mysteries, thou shalt never set lip to the undying wine of this Valley. " ...
-Bahá'u'lláh, The Seven Valleys And the Four Valleys, p. 30
