A Present to His Royal Highness - The Prince of Wales — Page 10
10 behalf of a Community which has demonstrated its loyalty by accepting every kind of persecution and annoyance in defence of Your Royal ancestors’ throne, and whose truth and sincerity are attested in letters of blood on the horizon. This loyal and faithful Community has a right, then, to request Your Royal Highness to honour them by accepting their present, and to peruse it once, at least, from beginning to end and also to present it to Your Royal Father, on behalf of the Community, and to request him to spare a portion of his most valuable time for its perusal, so that God may bestow upon him spiritual empire as He has made him a king upon earth and may bless his soul as He has blessed his body. After making this respectful request, I have the honour to present to Your Royal Highness, on behalf of the Ahmadiyyah Community generally and particularly on behalf of those who have participated in it, this gift, the like of which cannot be fashioned out of silver or gold.
