844. I also saw the city. The buildings are lofty, sometimes with dark streets because of the high buildings; yet, in such a manner that the continuation of the streets is seen, and the sky gives light. There also is a continuation of the city, as in other great cities. Presently this continuation was divided into streets, and then the city was seen. It was enclosed; and continuous very high buildings with many windows were represented to me, in such a way that they formed a square area consisting of two parts. I did not perceive their roofs, perhaps because they ended in the clouds. The color of the buildings on the outside was almost brick-like or darkish brown.
