In speaking with spirits one observes most keenly the image of a word, both the fact that one word comprehends many images, and that when a word is changed, it at once creates confusion. For instance, when those are called "spirits" who are in the world of spirits, and in fact are evil, none of the good want to hear "spirits," and because "angels" are only those who are in heaven. So it is in other cases. So when a different image is impressed upon a word, and the former word is changed, this creates much trouble in speaking with spirits, so that words ought to be used consistently once an image is impressed on them. 1748, 2 Sept.
