A certain pirate came toward me, and in fact toward the right side of my head, and approached me. And he wanted to pour himself into the right side of my head, and indeed, stealthily. For I heard from his speaking that he intended evil and would snatch anything he met with. Then rows of teeth appeared in him, so that his face was almost rows of teeth, thus ugly. And he twisted around like a scroll in the shape of a fish whose tail or back part curled around, so he thought that in this form he could penetrate more deeply and carry out his piracy. Presently I was instructed that he was a pirate who practiced piracy without conscience, and that the teeth symbolized his earthly qualities, as did the scroll shaped like a fish also. Then there appeared also an upright spirit rolled up in a veil, who was let down toward me, and could not be rolled out of that veil until he had begged. He had been let down by pirates overhead, like a prisoner, for the pirate with me was their medium. He withdrew when he realized that he could accomplish nothing. 1748, 27 Aug.
