Chapter LXXII
 Adam's heart is set on fire. Satan appears as beautiful maidens.  
 
1 Then Satan, and ten from his hosts, transformed themselves into maidens, unlike any others in the whole world for grace.
 
2 They came up out of the river in presence of Adam and Eve, and they said among themselves, "Come, we will look at the faces of Adam and Eve, who are of the men on earth. How beautiful they are, and how different is their look from our own faces." Then they came to Adam and Eve, and greeted them; and stood wondering at them.

11 Now, then, if I deceive him to do this thing, and to marry Eve without God's permission, God will kill him then."
 
12 Therefore Satan worked this apparition before Adam and Eve; because he sought to kill him, and to make him disappear from off the face of the earth.
