This volume contains seven Tablets, all revealed before 1863, including the long-anticipated retranslation of the Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys.

Also included are the poem Rashh-i-‘Amá (The Clouds of the Realms Above), revealed in the Síyáh-Chál in Tihrán, and four other newly translated Tablets from the period of Bahá’u’lláh’s sojourn in Iraq which elucidate aspects of the mystic journey of the soul towards its divine Beloved.
