44 og hun da sier til mig: Drikk du, og jeg vil også hente vann til dine kameler - så er hun den kvinne som Herren har utsett for min herres sønn.

Arcana Coelestia #3127

3127. The damsel ran. That this signifies the desire [animus] of that affection, is evident from the signification of “running,” as meaning that which is of the inclination or of the desire; and from the signification of a “damsel,” as being an affection in which is innocence (see above, n. 3067, 3110).
