1191. Afterwards there appeared to me a girl with a beautiful face, advancing quickly towards the right, hastening a little upwards. She was not a little child, nor a young girl, but an adolescent in the first bloom of womanhood; she was dressed in black. She was thus joyously hastening in light and into light, slightly upwards and obliquely towards the right. She signified the more interior things of the Word. She was beautiful and radiant in face, but her dress was black, though becoming, because exterior things which are garments do not appear to the more interior things.
