Veronica - Now I see five soldiers. They have on short dresses, but with metal sections coming down from the waist. And over their heads are metal hats, silver-colored metal hats that cut down to a V-shape on their foreheads. They're standing there by the rock with long spears in their hands.
     Now they are going back; they're walking backwards in fright. They are frightened! They're walking backwards, because there's a great light; it's seeping through the cracks. There's a great light. It's seeping through the cracks, and the light is pushing, pushing the rock forward. Now the rock is going over; the light is forcing the rock over to the side. The soldiers—two are running, running up the hill. One is covering his face with his arms. He can't look, the light is so bright.
     Now coming through the light are two large figures. Beautiful! Very large. Beautiful! Oh, they are angels. I can't see their faces, but their—oh, they are so large! Now one is standing there. He's raising his hand. He says: "He is risen!"
     Now two soldiers—one now is getting up; he's running. And the other one is sitting there; he's fallen to the ground in shock. Oh! Inside the cave it's very bright, very bright.
     I see now . . . the arm—oh, I see it, an arm. Oh! That slab—it has the cloth lying on the slab . . . . And walking out through this tremendous light—it's Jesus. Oh! He's now coming out of the light, though; He's not glowing, like inside the light by the cave.
     Now He's coming out, and He's got slippers on His feet. And He now has a robe on Him; it's white. It's very soiled looking, but it's a white robe. And I notice these bandages are hanging from the slab, the rock, onto the ground. The ground is dirt, dirt; it's just dirt on the ground inside the cave. I can see now, because the light now has left the cave. And Jesus now has started to walk. He's going up the hill; He's walking very slowly up the hill. 

Mary Magdalene at the tomb

And now—oh, there's a lady; she's coming down to the side of the cave. And she's looking in, and now she says, "Oh!" And she runs over now, and she's picking up the pieces of the cloth. And she's looking around the cave, and she's running out now.
     And she's running up the hill. And she's running over—oh, "Where have they taken Him? They have stolen Him from us." And she—now she's reaching out, and she's fallen down on her knees and saying: "Please! Where is He?" Now—

Jesus - "Don't . . . do not place your hands upon My garments. I have not ascended in the Father."

Veronica - Now the lady is looking up, and she's smiling. And now Jesus is placing His hand over her head, and He says: 

Jesus - "Go, Mary, and tell all what you have seen."

Veronica - Now Jesus is walking; He's climbing up the hill. And Mary now is—she's fallen on her face, just like she's praying. No—now she's getting up, and she's running down the hill. And I can see her—she's running down the hill now, and she's running towards these buildings. There are one, two . . . five buildings. They don't look like regular buildings; they look like houses made from clay, or like a hut, sort of like clay. And now she's running into one.

Tell us Mary, thou our herald be,
What in passing thou didst see?
"Empty tomb, where Christ, now living, lay,
Angels saw I in bright array,
Shroud and vesture loosely cast aside
Prove clear: He is risen glorified."
(Sequence, Easter Sunday)
