69. The angels of the third heaven live on mountains, which are not stony but made of earth; there are paradises on them and sylvan gardens. The mountains rise to a peak; the best and most chaste live at the highest level, and so progressively downwards according to their degrees in marriage, spiritual and spiritual-natural. They are also distinguished according to points of the compass; the east where they are in love, the south where they are in wisdom.
