SD 4732 - 4733
Good spirits [are such] as have not yet become angels,
but because they often come in contact with evil spirits,
who constantly attempt to produce evils.
The number of such [evil spirits] is very great;
and the evils which they produce are innumerable . . ..
Those who are good, and interiorly angels,
have given to them a breast-plate, which is, as it were,
a larger form of heart, made of gold.
When the evil, or robbers, meet them,
and they draw aside their garments and show the golden heart,
the robbers dare not do anything.
Those who confess the Lord, are given a breastplate of gold;
but beforehand, while as yet they acknowledge Three Persons,
their breast-plate is of silver.
And there is also given to them a sword with a silver hilt,
together with a belt.
When they carry that sword,
evil spirits dare do nothing.
