2244. Some spirit said that when in their company, he would tell them all kinds of clever sayings, and produce fantasies that delighted them, because he was even able to bring forth visions in front of them to entertain them. But still, he said, he would afterwards hurt them, twisting the visions into evil, one of which they portrayed to me. So while they certainly wanted to have him among them, yet because he was like that, they could not bear it.
