1758. The speech of spirits takes different forms. Each community, or group of spirits, can be identified by its speech; indeed each individual spirit can, in almost the same way as men. They can be identified not only by the affections which bring such speech to life and which fill out or support the words they use, and by the intonations they use, but also by the actual sounds as well as by other characteristics which cannot be explained so easily.
