1305. Ideas with spirits are not like words with us. This can also be concluded from the fact that the ideas of spirits fall into the words of any language whatsoever, so that if it were granted, the ideas or speech of any spirit might flow into various persons who spoke different languages; in such case although the spirit spoke only in one manner, each one would perceive what he said in his own language or idiom. Wherefore such profane ideas are circumstanced differently amongst spirits, for they at once notice the profane things that are mixed with the holy things, so that it immediately strikes their minds and they perceive the profanation, otherwise than man does. 1748, Mar. 11.
