Either thou or someone else hath said: "Let the Súrih of Tawhíd be translated, so that all may know and be fully persuaded that the one true God begetteth not, nor is He begotten. O Shaykh! This station is the station in which one dieth to himself and liveth in God. Divinity, whenever I mention it, indicateth My complete and absolute self-effacement.

"Faith begetteth Faith." But now, to the cities of Cyprus, left destitute of defense while their nobles were gone to honor the Emperor's command, came a band of mercenaries of the Emperor's sending, who stole the customs and by their lawless acts frightened the people who fled for safety to the convents, denouncing Frederick as false and craven; while the governors sent by him, in despite of his solemn treaty, made havoc in the land, proclaiming in every city: "Let not the Lord of Iblin set foot in this land of Cyprus by order of the Emperor!"

Neither is it lawfull for any other of the Persians to execute any thyng against any of his house or stock, that maie sieme in any wyse cruelle. Euery one of them marie many wiues: and holde many concubines also beside, for the encrease of issue. The king Proclaimeth rewarde vnto him, that within one yere begetteth most children.

And then that fire, penetrating through the Earth and making its appearance, in the nether regions also, begetteth great terror in the hearts of the gods, the Danavas and the Yakshas. And, O lord of the earth, consuming the nether regions as also everything upon this Earth that fire destroyeth all things in a moment.

THIRD. I come now to the third thing to wit, That these promises were ground for a believing remembrance that a Saviour should one day come. There is a remembering, and a believing remembering, or such a remembering that begetteth and maintaineth faith in the heart. These, with Simeon and Anna, had not a remembrance only, but a believing remembrance that God would send them a Saviour.
