8027. The spirit spoken of above who was by my left side was from time to time interposing remarks. In particular he warned me to behave in an unassuming manner towards his angels; for there were spirits from our planet who had a way of displaying behaviour that would be displeasing. He also said that he could not understand what it was the angels were declaring, not until after he had moved up to my left ear. His speech then also ceased to be grating, as it had been before, becoming instead like that of other spirits.
