1500. WHAT THE PUNISHMENT OF THE HORROR OF DARKNESS EFFECTS When spirits have thus been let into that darksome opening [see n. 1493], and afterwards come into daylight, then as soon as they desire revenge that horror occurs to them, and so they desist. Wherefore it is this horror which answers to such states, when the terror and fear of other evils are removed from them. 1748, Mar. 18.
