      Epilogue

      The massacre of the Bábís of Nayríz in 1850, was just the first. About three years later [end of 1852-early 1853] the second massacre of the Bâbís in Nayríz occurred, which in many ways was even more brutal than the first one (DB 25-26 Part A, Section A4). And this resurgence of persecution in Nayríz will arise time and again with varying intensity until the present day. 66_ACT12
