Hearken ye, O Rulers of America and the Presidents of the
Republics therein, unto that which the Dove is warbling on the Branch of
Eternity: “There is none other God but Me, the Ever-Abiding, the Forgiving, the
All-Bountiful.” Adorn ye the temple of dominion with the ornament of justice
and of the fear of God, and its head with the crown of the remembrance of your
Lord, the Creator of the heavens. Thus counselleth you He Who is the Dayspring
of Names, as bidden by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
(Baha’u’llah,
‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
