After this, the angel addressed those who had deluded themselves with the idea that the joys of heaven and eternal happiness consisted in feasting with Abram, Isaac, and Jacob, followed by sports and public shows and then by more feasting, and so on to eternity.

He then led them through a g... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=6 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 77 77.

THE ORIGIN OF CONJUGIAL LOVE FROM THE MARRIAGE OF GOOD AND TRUTH The origins of conjugial love are internal and external. The internal origins are many and likewise the external, but the inmost of all, being the universal origin, is one. That this inmost origin is the marriage of good and truth will be shown in what now follows. No one has hitherto deduced the origin of that love from th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=83 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 148 148. Implanted in every man from creation and thence by birth is an internal conjugial and an external conjugial. The internal is spiritual and the external natural.

If therefore he remains in the external or natural conjugial, the internal or spiritual conjugial is being veiled over until at last he knows nothi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=148 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 158 158. II. THAT CONJUGIAL LOVE CONJOINS TWO SOULS AND THENCE MINDS INTO A ONE. Every man consists of soul, mind, and body. Being man's inmost, the soul from its origin is celestial; being his mediate, the mind from its origin is spiritual; and being his ultimate, the body from its origin is natural. Things which from their origin are celestial, and those which from their origin are spiritual, are no... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=158 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 180 180. XXI. THAT THE STATES OF THIS LOVE ARE INNOCENCE, PEACE, TRANQUILLITY, INMOST FRIENDSHIP, FULL CONFIDENCE, AND A MUTUAL DESIRE OF ANIMUS AND HEART TO DO TO THE OTHER EVERY GOOD; AND FROM ALL THESE, BLESSEDNESS, HAPPINESS, DELIGHT, PLEASURE; AND FROM THE ETERNAL FRUITION OF THESE, HEAVENLY FELICITY.

I. THAT THE SENSE PROPER TO CONJUGIAL LOVE IS THE SENSE OF TOUCH. Every love has its own sense.

The love of learning what things float about in the air... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=210 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 269 269. After this, we ascended from these lower regions into the south where we had been before. There the angels told us many things worthy of mention concerning the non-visionary or non-fantastical concupiscence, in which every man is from birth. "So long as men are in it, they are fools and yet seem to themselves to be supremely wise. From this foolishness they are restored by turns into the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=269 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 293 293.

VI. THAT BY BETROTHAL EACH IS PREPARED FOR CONJUGIAL LOVE. That by betrothal, the mind or spirit of the one is prepared for union with the mind or spirit of the other, or, what is the same thing, the love of the one with the love of the other, is evident from the arguments presented in the preceding article. It should be mentioned in addition, that on conjugial love is inscribed the following... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=302 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 306 306. X. THAT WHEN THE TIME OF BETROTHAL IS COMPLETED,THE WEDDING OUGHT TO TAKE PLACE. There are ceremonies which are merely formal, and ceremonies which are also essential. Among the latter are weddings.

That she cannot protect herself an... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=325 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 360 360. It shall now be told how love, when attacked, is enkindled and inflamed into zeal, as fire is enkindled into a flame.

In the will, love knows nothing about itself, for there it has no sensation of itself; nor does it there act of itsel... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=360 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 364 364.
