1229. Thus they are as it were furies since they have placed their all in such things. Spirits can at once judge of what quality they had been during their life from the hair its color, length, the way it is spread, and other things which concern the hair; also from the body its nakedness, how far this is manifest, and especially what parts are exposed, and what parts they want to conceal. From this souls can also recognize themselves, for they ought first to know of what quality they have been. 1748, Mar. 8.
