Saturday, a meridie hora 4. While I was about to write the title of the second side of the seventh leaf, and E.K. sitting by me, Madimi appeared as before like a young girl, &c. And I saluted her in the name of God, and said to her that I was wonderfully (in manner) oppressed with the work prescribed to me to perform before August next, and desired her to help me to one to write the Holy Book as it ought to be written: seeing I did all I could, and it seemed almost impossible for me to finish it as it is requisite. Madimi promised to help me to one to write the book: and thereupon appeared to her (but unseen of E.K.) her mother. Madimi said also that she was now learning of Greek and Arabic, and the Syrian tongue. MADIMI: 'Mother, I pray you let him have one to write his book.'
