How to Test the Spirits

Demons are very cowardly, always anxious about the fire that has been prepared for them. To bolster your courage against them, take this sure sign: When some apparition occurs, do not collapse in terror, But whatever it may be ask first, bravely, "Who are you, and where do you come from?" If it is a divine vision, it will give you assurances and change your fear to joy. If it is some devil, it will immediately be weakened by your formidable spirit.
