26. It has been granted me to see and hear many after death who recounted their good deeds and exercises of piety, such as those just mentioned above Nos. 24, 25, and many more. Among them I have also seen some who had lamps and no oil; but when inquiry was made whether they had shunned evils as sins, it was found that they had not. They were therefore told that they were wicked; and they were afterwards seen to enter eaves where there were wicked spirits like them themselves.
