4794. A filthy act done by them was disclosed as well. There was a spirit who was with me. He was a good [spirit], and he was closely connected with me. There were two times that he was secretly lured by them, and they did terribly filthy things with him, one after another, a kind of adultery. But while they imagined it was that spirit, they were others who were involved with him in worldly affairs. They were also made visible later by the fact that that they committed filthy acts. It was granted me to know in what way they believe the Word's goods and truths, namely, by perverting these more than others do, for this is shown in the other life by similar acts of adultery. Besides this they also secretly seek opportunities to inflict injury in wicked ways.
4794. There was also an infamous thing from them which was detected: to wit, there was a certain spirit with me, who was in good; and he was adjoined to me. He was twice called forth by them, in secret; and they did the most infamous things to him, one after another, in the way of corrupting him. They supposed it was that spirit [they had worked on], but it was others who were with him in externals - who were, also, afterwards pointed out. From the fact of their perpetrating abominations, it is given to know how they believe in the truths and goods of the Word, to wit, that they pervert these things more than others do; for this is exhibited, in the other life, by things like adulterations. Moreover, they also seek opportunities of injuring stealthily, in heinous ways.

Praeterea etiam quaerunt clam occasiones laedendi modis nefariis.
