CHRONOLOGICAL ACCOUNT.
spiritual into the natural world, and on "Divine Omnipresence and
Omniscience" contained in the same work from nos. 1196-1228 ; and
especially also the treatises on "Divine Love" and "Divine Wisdom"
discussed above (nos. 122 and 123).
The MS. of this work was no doubt ready for the press, when
the Author "in the beginning of June left Stockholm by sea for
Holland" (Document 283, A, no. 1). After arriving there he published
the present work which bears the imprint of 1763, and the follow
ing work "Angelic Wisdom respecting the Divine Providence"
(no. 125), which was published in 1764. After finishing these works,
"he went over to England to deliver them to the Royal Society,"
and returned to Sweden in August, 1764 (see Document 251,
p. 402).
The first English translation ofthis work was prepared by Dr. Tucker
of Hull, and printed at the expense of the Manchester Printing Society
in 1788. A Swedish translation was printed at Copenhagen in 1795
under the title, Englawisheten om den gudomliga Kärleken. Since
then it has been published in the German, * French, Italian and
Icelandic languages. A portion of it has also appeared in Russian.
1763 and 1764. (125.) Sapientia Angelica de Divina Pro
videntia (Angelic Wisdom respecting the Divine Provi
dence). Amsterdam, 1764, pp. 214, 4to.
This work is based on a dissertation bearing the same title in the
"Apocalypse Explained," nos. 1135-1194. The author no doubt wrote
it in Amsterdam in 1763 while he was seeing the "Divine Love and
Wisdom" through the press. It was translated into English by
Dr. Tucker of Hull, and printed in 1790 at the expense of the
Manchester Printing Society. The first American edition was
published in Boston in 1796, by Messrs. Thomas and Andrews.
Since then it has been published in the German, French, Italian, and
Polish languages.
1764. (126.) Doctrina de Charitate (Doctrine of Charity),
in MSS., p. 49, large oblong folio.
This treatise is probably that which, in the preface to the "Doctrine
of the Lord" (no. 116), was promised under the title Sapientia
Angelica de Vita (Angelic Wisdom respecting Life). That it was
written in 1764 is proved by a reference in it to the "Doctrine of
Faith," the "Apocalypse Explained," the "Divine Providence, and the
* The first German translation of this work was printed in Stockholm,
in 1816, at the expense of the New Church friends in London.
