The undine says she only wants Severian's love. But they have to sneak off underwater
somewhere to do it and Severian is ambivalent about the whole thing.
 
Eckhart says: 
 
>"Tests for the devil and angel are as follows. Anything an angel does is done in the 
>light, orderly and clearly and the soul rejoices in the amiable presence of an angel;
>also it is a sign to know him by that she is left with a sense of pleasure. In 
>counterfeiting this, the devil makes it vague, confused, ambiguous, and the soul,
>affrighted at the haunting of the fiend, is restless and depressed and by this she may
>know it is the devil."
 
So I don't know what to think.  What do you think?
