4787. [4824] THE HELLS OF PROFANERS. Round about, at a great distance, appeared a black mistiness, mixed, as it were, with a fiery or sanguineous appearance, dreadful to the sight of the good. In that gloom, are profaners, rejected to an exceedingly great distance. Thither was sent a profaner; and it was said that nothing exists there but gnashing and raging of one against another. It was said that these [hells] are round about, even to the remotest circumference.
