551. Especially do they contemplate the starry heaven, which they call the dwelling-place of the angels. They do not know anything about the plurality of worlds. Moreover, they are much wiser than our spirits who, they say, talk much and think little, so that they cannot perceive many things interiorly, as whether a good is truly heavenly, thus they are exterior men. But they say this only of the spirits with whom they are unwilling to be.
