3. When he had made these pronouncements, I brought forward some real truths, which he had previously heard and confirmed while he was in externals. As soon as he heard these, he turned his eyes back, recognised [the truths], and rolled his eyes back, and with a sort of border of the coating which covered the pupil he swallowed those truths and brought them into his own deceptive light; and he then called those truths falsities. But since in my sight this seemed foul and, as it were, murderous, seeing that he was in this way murdering the truths that make man man and an angel an angel, I loathed his presence. So I turned my face from him; and when I looked back, I saw him falling through a whirlpool into hell; and since he had made the place where he had been standing stink, I went quickly home. For Divine Truth, when falsified by satans in the spiritual world, stinks like the filth of the streets.
