He arrived here on the eve of the past holy Shabbas. And while still in Teplik — Hashem Yisborach turned his mind — through the advice of members of our anshei sh'lomaynu who truly love him — that it is essential that he be at the wedding of his son — he is his grandson — may he live. And today he received his letter. And according to his current thinking — he will be — with Hashem's help — at the head of his joy — and they will delight in each other's love — in the chasadim of Hashem. And regarding the cart for him — certainly it is impossible to wait until it comes — and he will see to travel — if Hashem wills — from here himself. Or to instruct the men of Teplik — that they send a cart for him — before your arrival there. And he already spoke of this with Rabbi Mordechai — may his light shine. And you do not need to trouble your mind with this at all.

Only — regarding the pre-chuppah gathering — he does not want in any manner to dine at that meal. And therefore it is likely that he will not come until Tuesday morning — if Hashem wills. And even if he comes on Monday — he does not want anyone to press him at all to participate in the gathering of the pre-chuppah meal — for he has no strength for this. And to Hashem the salvation and the hope — that all will be properly arranged — with Hashem's help.

And behold — it appears that you have prevailed over him — my beloved son. Nitztachtani b'ni chavivi. Your longing — and the longing of our anshei sh'lomaynu — compelled him to rejoice with them together — in the salvation of Hashem. And chedvas Hashem yehi li ma'uzeinu. Would that you merit my son — my dear friend — to prevail over He Who spoke and the world came into being — that He be from now your help — to be as His will always — to hold the thought away from external thoughts and excessive thoughts — and to bind and attach your thought always to the World to Come — and to gladden your soul with all strength — and to strengthen yourself to remain always in your standing. And all this through the ways of our Master — of blessed memory — and the essential — through the will and the good longings — and to bring them out in the mouth — in words from the depth of the heart — to fulfil lam'natzeach mizmor l'David — and our Sages interpreted: zam'ru l'mi she'm'natz'chin oso v'sameach — sing to He Who is prevailed over and rejoices. Only be very strong and bold — with joy — with a whole heart — that we merited to engage in such holy and awesome conversations and matters. And praised be G-d — we have someone to rely upon — on the great power of the elder of elders in holiness — in them we have fixed our stakes forever.

The words of your father — who awaits salvation.
