4715. WHAT SORT [OF SPIRITS], IN GENERAL, PERTAIN TO THE CEREBELLUM AND CEREBRUM. They who in the world appear good and agreeable in the countenance, so that it cannot be believed other than that they are such, but who inwardly think ill of all men, and do not, although they think so, let it be clearly known, save amongst their intimates - these are the malignant ones who are beneath the occiput. They, however, who are inwardly evil, and [outwardly] affable, but still it [the affability] is so feigned that it can be recognized - these are not there.
