387. There are filthy and foul little animals that attack and torture them
All fantasies that occur because of a forbidden love of the body or mind, have as a companion, or along with them, animals that are offensive, filthy, foul, frightening, stinking, etc., with which spirits are confronted while engaged in their forbidden fantasies aroused by their passions and pleasures, in which they find the most intense enjoyment. As a result, their enjoyments are intermixed with such horror-provoking creatures. The species of such insects are countlessly many. I have seen some of them displayed, but they are innumerable. Each species is fashioned to image some mixture of fantasies with loves or motives - the fantasies that inevitably follow and accompany earthly-minded persons, who live their life upside-down. From their enjoyments results a most dreadful hell; for as great as the feeling of pleasure in such enjoyments is, so great is the feeling of pain, and of fright, that arises when their worldly and bodily [enjoyments], which they imagine to be heavenly, are turned into hellish ones. 1747, the 24th day of December.
