1764、有一次,一些灵人也通过纯粹的视觉代表与我交谈。他们呈现出各种颜色的火焰,灯光,云的升降,各种各样的小房子和讲台,器皿,身穿各种各样衣服的人,以及其它许多事物。这一切都具有灵义或象征意义,仅凭它们我就能知道他们想表达什么。

[NCE]1764. Once some spirits also talked to me in pure visual representations. They presented images of flames in various colors, lights, rising and falling clouds, different kinds of cottages and platforms, utensils, people dressed in various ways, and many other things. All the images had symbolic meaning, and from them alone I could tell what the spirits meant.

Once also spirits conversed with me simply by representatives shown before the sight, by representing flames of various colors; lights clouds rising and falling;, small houses and platforms for speaking of different kinds; vessels; persons variously dressed, and many other things, which were all significative; and merely from these it could be known what they desired to convey.
