My Dear, Loyal Brothers !

I was going to write you a letter today. I was feeling agitated due to my serious indisposition when just at that moment Mustafa Gül and İbrahim Gül appeared, They were both medicine for me, and consolation, and the cause of great joy, so I am sending those two blessed brothers to you as a letter and as my deputies.
