"Hast thou not heard: “No change is there in God’s creation”?²⁹ Hast thou not read: “No change canst thou find in God’s mode of dealing”?³⁰ Hast thou not borne witness to the truth: “No difference wilt thou see in the creation of the God of Mercy”?³¹ Yea, by My Lord! They that dwell within this Ocean, they that ride upon this Ark, witness no change in the creation of God and behold no differences upon His earth. And if God’s creation be not prone to change and alteration, how then could they who are the Manifestations of His own Being be subject to it? Immeasurably exalted is God above all that we may conceive of the Revealers of His Cause, and immensely glorified is He beyond all that they may mention in His regard!

Great God! This sea had laid up lustrous pearls in store; 

The wind hath raised a wave that casteth them ashore.

So put away thy robe and drown thyself therein,  

And cease to boast of skill: 

it serveth thee no more!"
