LETTER CXII.

That devoted servant, to-morrow you should go to (my special) garden and enjoy the pleasure of the ‘gūl-dasteh’.* The guards of the garden, consisting of the followers and other persons who will accompany you today (for shewing you the garden), will try their best to please and satisfy you to the utmost. (Couplet) “When you become his (i.e., when you be a faithful servant of your master), all the property (of your master) becomes yours (i.e., belongs to you, is at your disposal). When you turn away from him (i.e., when you prove faithless to your mas­ter), all the property (of your master) turns away from you (i.e., does not belong to you and you are deprived of its use)”.*
