532. Continuation about the inhabitants of Jupiter

The one who had been with me was becoming weary, longing for the company of his own people and turning away from those spirits who are from our earth because they were trying to deceive him and lead him astray toward things contrary to belief and truth. This spirit also said that in the part of his earth where he had been, there was as great a number of people as the land could nourish, adding that the ground is fertile, abounding in all things. Therefore, since all live without greed, seeking only to be nourished, one can infer that there must be a multitude of people. 1748, the 24th or 25th day of January.
