The raising of this Edifice [1] will in turn herald the construction, in the course of successive epochs of the Formative Age of the Faith, of several other structures...

These Edifices will, in the shape of a far-flung arc, and following a harmonizing style of architecture, surround the resting-places of the Greatest Holy Leaf, ranking as foremost among the members of her sex in the Bahá'í Dispensation, of her Brother, offered up as a ransom by Bahá'u'lláh for the quickening of the world and its unification, and of their Mother, proclaimed by Him to be His chosen `consort in all the worlds of God'.
