Excerpt from The Book of Visions: Being a Transcript of the Record of the Secret Thoughts of a Variety of Individuals While Attending Church; Embracing Members of the Cabinet, Members of Congress, Bankers, Lawyers, Editors, Merchants, Ladies, Etc., Etc
The thought that the spirit of my Christian friend, released from its earthly tenement, which lay extended before me, already in incipient cor ruption, was enjoying a felicity unknown to those who were yet in the bonds of the flesh, afforded a consolation which nothing else could give.
I turned away from the mournful spectacle, and indulged in solitude the thoughts which had been inspired within me. My own reason satisfied me that with God nothing was impossible; and that if it were his will, all the ministering hosts of heaven, and of hell, must be truly mingling everywhere in the midst of us frail mortals, Without the slightest consciousness on our part of their presence.
