110. [111.] The vast multitude was examined to discover what affection the people had for truth arising from good, and whether at the same time they lived intent on the goodness of charity. That examination took the appearance of a sudden and instantaneous transferral to various zones. Those who were at the center remained there, because they possessed an affection for truth and wished to be imbued with truths of faith. The rest were sent back to be instructed first in some doctrine of truth by instructors of their own who had been upright monks, and at the same time from the Word; and afterward they were conveyed to those of the Protestant Reformed who, because of their having lived according to truths of the Word, were now angelic spirits.
