Consider ye! In the day of His Highness Christ, the grandeur
and majesty of their Holiness the Apostles, was not known. After three-hundred
years the loftiness of the station and the exaltation of their attainment
became manifest. Ere long the result of the deeds in this cycle of Baha’u’llah
will appear and every one of the friends and the maid-servants will be crowned
with a diadem whose splendid gems will radiate brilliancy and effulgence
throughout cycles and ages. - ‘Abdu'l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu'l-Baha’ volume 3)
