2580. An effigy was shown to me in broad daylight when my eyes were open, of how they finally become in the sight of the upright, namely that their faces are worse than that of a corpse, with horrible cavities, bony, of a very dirty bluish brown, cadaverous color. They are unable to think anything at all, being dead to themselves, tormented by anxiety. 1748, 9 July.
