Excerpt from Heaven and Its Wonders, the World of Spirits, and Hell: From Things Heard and Seen The following translation is a copy of the one recently published in London, from the pen of the Rev. Samuel Noble, entitled "Heaven and its Wonders, the World of Spirits (or the intermediate region, which is the first receptacle of man after death), and Hell; described by one who had heard and seen what he relates. From the Latin of Emanuel Swedenborg, servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. Translated by the Rev. Samuel Noble. Second edition, carefully revised, with a new preface by the Translator, including explanatory notes and observations. Together with the original English preface by the Rev. Thomas Hartley, A.M. London, James S. Hodson, 22 Portugal Street, Lincoln's Inn, 1851." Most of the notes are retained; and Hartley's preface (published by private subscription) is bound in some of the copies; but the excellent critical preface by the Rev. Mr. Noble is omitted, not being appropriate to this edition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
