3892. I have been told by the most ancient people who were celestial and who more than any others were governed by love to the Lord that they did not have external breathing like those who came after them but internal breathing. They have said that they breathed with angels whose company they shared because they were governed by heavenly love. I have also been told that their state of breathing was determined entirely by their states of love and of faith deriving from it. On these points see what has been related already in 608, 805, 1118-1120.
