WRITERS.--The most ancient writers, whose works remain to us, do not go
back beyond the iron age, 73. See _Writings_.
WRITINGS, the, of the most ancient and of the ancient people are not
extant: the writings which exist are those of authors who lived after
the ages of gold, silver, and iron, 73. Writings of some learned
authoresses, examined in the spiritual world in the presence of those
authoresses, 175. The writings, which proceed from ingenuity and wit, on
account of the elegance and neatness of the style in which they are
written, have the appearance of sublimity and erudition, but only in the
eyes of those who call all ingenuity by the name of wisdom, 175. Writing
in the heavens, 182, 326.
XENOPHON, 151*.
YOUTH.--In heaven, all are in the flower of youth, and continue therein
to eternity, 250. All who come into heaven return into their vernal
youth, and into the powers appertaining to that age, and thus continue
to eternity, 44. Infants in heaven do not grow up beyond their first
age, and there they stop, and remain therein to eternity, 411, 444; and
that when they attain the stature which is common to youths of eighteen
years old in the world, and to virgins of fifteen, 444.
