Those who are in the hell of magical arts, before they are carried down to it, and when they are there, are instructed by experience that those arts achieve absolutely nothing, but are mere mockeries, for they at first practice them on each other, thus the one tormenting the other to the point where they no longer dare to do anything against the other.
4527. Those who are in the hell of magicians, before they are conveyed thither, and also while there, are instructed by experience that these arts are perfectly powerless, and that they are in fact mere delusions; for [though] they at first practice these arts upon each other, and by them torment one another, yet it finally comes to that, that they lose all power and prompting to do harm towards each other in this way.
