I was also shown that they are such, and devoid of conscience, by actual experience, for it was granted me to see that there is something that would hold the conscience intact, but they had none of it, and were surprised that there was anyone who has a conscience; so they are the mucus of the nostrils, which it was also granted to tell them, thus that they are filthy and must be rejected.

They are adulteressess and void of conscience. That they are such, and that they are wholly destitute of conscience, was shown me by living experience, for it was given me to perceive that there is [usually] something which holds the conscience under restraint, but with them there was nothing of the kind; they wondered that there should be anyone possessed of conscience. They are therefore the mucus of the nostrils, which also it was given to say to them and that they were therefore vile and rejectable.
