548. Continuation on the inhabitants of Jupiter

Their dwellings or tents were also shown to me. They are small, only roofs, open round about, made of light blue tree bark, which looked to me as if dotted with stars. In addition, they also have another tent, constructed of the same material, of the same color, and likewise dotted. It was rounded, but stretched out lengthwise. Into it they betake themselves lest their faces be harmed by the heat of the sun. Their face they guard very closely, since they do not consider it as the body.
