The Second Memorable Relation: I once saw three spirits newly arrived from the world, who were wandering about, observing and inquiring.

Upon the horsemen's heads appeared crested helmets, upon their arms wings, as it were, and about their bodies light orange-colored tunics.

From this foolishness they are restored by turns into the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=269 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 271 271.

XXI. THAT IN THE WORLD THERE ARE INFERNAL MARRIAGES BETWEEN PARTNERS WHO INWARDLY ARE BITTER ENEMIES AND OUTWARDLY LIKE CLOSE FRIENDS.
