We turn now from the field of the astrologer to the closely allied province of Chaldean magic a province which includes the other; which, indeed, is so all-encompassing as scarcely to leave any phase of Babylonian thought outside its bounds. The tablets having to do with omens, exorcisms, and the like magic practices make up an astonishingly large proportion of the Babylonian records.
Nevertheless, the all-compelling will of God and His all-encompassing and irresistible purpose has desired that this dark earth should become as the Abhá Kingdom, and this heap of dust be changed until it becomes the envy of the rose gardens of Heaven.
Nothing of all this: there are no cultivated spots in mediæval poetry; the city only, and the castle, and the endless, all-encompassing forest.
Then look thou not at the degree of thy capacity, look thou at the boundless favour of Bahá’u’lláh; all-encompassing is His bounty, and consummate His grace. I ask of God that with His assistance and strong support thou mayest teach the inner meanings of the Torah with eloquence, understanding, vigour and skill.

Under this was a divan and silken cushions, and near it a small Moorish table of ebony inlaid with mother-of-pearl and gold.

The Christian thought is the higher one, 'Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid Thine hand upon me, and wherever I am I am under obligation to serve Thee, and no past record of work absolves me from the work of the present. From the cradle to the grave I walk beneath an all-encompassing, overarching firmament of duty.
Very soon it would crumble quite away, just as he himself was crumbling into the dreadful silence of the ages. His life the brief passion called life was over. Out of the dark it had come; into the dark it went. And no one to care no one to cry farewell to him across that desolation of emptiness that was death! No one to kneel beside him and pray for light in that awful, all-encompassing dark!
