Although the external or natural memory remains in man after death, the merely natural things in it are not reproduced in the other life, but only the spiritual things adjoined to the natural by correspondences; but when these are present to the sight they appear in exactly the same form as they had in the natural world; for all things seen in the heavens have just the same appearance as in t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=464 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 489 489.
