ذکر من لدنا لمن کان بالذکر مذکورا و اقبل الی الوجه اذ ظهر بالحق و کان من المقبلین... انشآءالله باید بعنایت رحمن ساقی خمر عرفان

Provisional translation

A remembrance from Our presence unto him who was remembered through the Remembrance and turned unto the Countenance when it appeared in truth and was among them that turned... God willing, through the grace of the All-Merciful, thou shalt become the cupbearer of the wine of mystic knowledge [3.5s]

BLIB. Manuscripts in the British Library, London, listed by Or number. For a handlist of works of the Báb see Chapter 25 of https://archive.org/details/descriptivelisto00brituoft/page/n3. Regarding manuscripts in the series Or16590 through Or15740, which together comprise half of all known works of Bahá’u’lláh, including some 4,000 items which are uniquely accessible in this series: These were the bequest of a descendent of the family of Bahá’u’lláh; were mostly transcribed by Mírzá Muḥammad-‘Alí, and are likely to have been derived in part from the two stolen satchels of Bahá’u’lláh’s papers mentioned in GPB p.249 and MMK4#189 p.276. While included here owing to their importance, their degree of fidelity to the originals has not yet been ascertained
