I remember that while my companions were playing by the way, I went forward out of sight, and, sitting down, I read the twenty-second chapter of Revelation: "He showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, &c."

A huge, overpowering foreign object, it surrounded me, enveloped me, and made me feel almost dizzy.
