933. Souls who act powerfully by their sphere, and bend or pervert the sphere of the thoughts of another - and this, by reason of what has been implanted - not only turn, as it were, things that are good into what agrees with their own nature or sphere, but in certain cases, they sometimes turn things that are evil into good to the end that they may deceive, and also because they have desired to distort all things, and in this way to conceal their own cupidities. 1748, Feb. 22. These things are from experience.
