SWEDENBORG’S WRITINGS.
1766. ( 128.) Methodus Nova inveniendi Longitudines Locorum
terra marique (New Method of finding the Longitude of
Places on land and at sea). [Amsterdam, 1766,] pp. 8, 4to.
This little scientific tract, which is in great measure a reprint of
no. 30, was printed without date and without the name of the
town where published. That it was printed in Amsterdam in 1766,
appears from Document 228.
For further particulars, see Document 203.
1766. (129.) De Equo et Hieroglyphis (On the Horse and
Hieroglyphics), in MS.
Soon after his return home in 1766 Swedenborg seems to have
submitted this tract to the Academy of Sciences in Stockholm ; for
he refers in it to the "Apocalypse Revealed." It constitutes Docu
ment 300, where further particulars respecting the original MS. and
the printed copies may be found.
1766. (130.) Index Verborum, Nominum, et Rerum in Apo
calypsi Revelata (Index of Words, Names, and Things
contained in the Apocalypse Revealed), in MS., pp. 75,
quarto.
Of this Index there are two copies preserved in Swedenborg’s hand
writing. The first is the rough copy, and the second a fair copy
written out for the printer. Of the latter a copy was prepared in
in 1782 under the superintendence of Aug. Nordensköld ; this was
printed in 1815 at the expense of Mr. J. A. Tulk.228 That gentleman
also published an English translation at his own expense.
For further particulars, see Document 310, Codex 7, no. 1.
1766. (131.) Quinque Memorabilia (Five memorable Re
lations), in MS., pp. 13, folio.
These Memorable Relations were copied by young Johansen,260 in 1785,
as is shown in Document 309, B (p. 807). Concerning the original MS. ,
see Document 310, Codex 1, no. 2. The copy prepared by Johansen
is now in the possession of the Swedenborg Society. Its contents
were published by Dr. Im. Tafel in 1846 in the "Spiritual Diary,"
Part VII, Appendix 1 , pp. 124 to 133. An English translation had
been previously published in the "New Jerusalem Magazine" for
1790, pp. 43-46 and 76–84.
The subjects treated of in these memorable relations are as
follows : 1. The nature of the merely natural man ; 2. The first state
of man after death ; 3. The consummation of the age, the destruction
