25. After thanking him they went home. There the angel said to them: 'It is now the third day since you came up into the community of this heaven, and it was for three days' stay here that the Lord prepared you. So now it is time for us to part. Take off the clothes the prince sent you, and put on your own.' When they were dressed in their own clothes, they felt a desire to leave. So they left and went down, with the angel accompanying them as far as the place of assembly. There they gave thanks to the Lord for His goodness in blessing them with knowledge, and so with intelligence, about the joys of heaven and everlasting happiness.
