That I shall not discuss, and perhaps cannot account for; but certainly they are a proof of the converse of spirits, and a secret communication between those embodied and those unembodied, and such a proof as can never be withstood; of which I shall have occasion to give some remarkable instances in the remainder of my solitary residence in this dismal place.
Je ne discuterai pas là-dessus, peut-être ne saurais-je en rendre compte, mais certainement c'est une preuve du commerce et de la mystérieuse communication entre les esprits unis à des corps et ceux immatériels, preuve incontestable que j'aurai occasion de confirmer dans le reste de ma résidence solitaire sur cette terre fatale.
