1578. The same is true of other displays, like those depicting members of the animal Kingdom, as well as earthly scenes, such as forests, fields, rivers, mountains-the essences of which are to be sought in the inward, very inward, and innermost levels of meaning. For from the heavenly, which is the soul, is formed what is spiritual, from the spiritual, the nature element is formed, from the natural, the material components of the threefold Kingdom. 1748, 20 March.
