چون به تأمل و تفکر در مطالعت آن سعی پیوسته آمد و بر مضمون آن اطلاع تمام و وقوف به کمال حاصل گشت، خاطر منقسم را از تصفح غرض مطبوع و معنی دلپذیر آن2 انشراح فراوان روی داد، اما مشاطهآ طبع رنگ آمیز هیچ سخنوری عرایس عاطل5 اغراض و معانی آن را بهزیور سلاست الفاظ و حلیهٔ لطافت، عبارات مزین و محلی نگردانیده و گلغونه بر روی و وسمه بر ابروی آن نکشیده، و طبع بنده هرچند بهسبب توالی عرض و تواتر سقم صفت ملالت پذیرفته بود و از صرصر حوادث در مصباح ضمیر نور و ضیایی نمانده و آن خاطر وقاد که گوهر شب افروز بدایع معانی زادی، پایبند سلاسل خطر شده و آن قریحهآ نقاد که جواهر الفاظ بلیغ را جلا دادی، از آفات چرخ آبگون زنگار خورده. لمؤلفه:
When persistent effort was made in contemplating and reflecting upon its perusal, and full knowledge and complete awareness of its contents were obtained,
from browsing its pleasing theme and charming meaning, an abundant expansion of heart occurred to this distracted mind.
Yet the tire-woman of no eloquent writer's colorful genius had adorned and beautified the unadorned brides of its themes and meanings
with the ornament of fluency of words and the embellishment of elegance of phrasing, nor drawn rouge upon their faces
and woad upon their brows. And although this servant's nature, on account of the successive accidents and incessant ailments, had taken on the quality of
weariness, and from the gale of misfortunes no light or brilliance remained in the lamp of the heart, and that fiery mind
that used to generate the night-illuminating gem of novel concepts had become bound in the chains of peril, and that critical discernment that
used to polish the jewels of eloquent phrases was rusted by the afflictions of the azure sphere. By the author:
