The reason why they continue, is because love pertains p...

111. For the EIGHTH time a paper came forth, from which he read as follows: "In our compartment, we compatriots have not found the actual origin of conjugial love because that origin is inmostly laid up in the sanctuaries of the mind.

There was something of laughter in it, in this something of indignation, and in this something of sadness; yet the clamor was not therefore dissonan...

295. BETROTHALS AND WEDDINGS In this chapter, betrothals and weddings and the solemn ceremonies connected therewith are treated of chiefly from reason which pertains to the understanding; for what is written in this book has for its end that the reader may see truths from his rational understanding and so may give them his assent. In this way his spirit is convinced, and that of which the sp...

It is also a sign of the holiness of marriage; for after the virgin flower, the bride gives and devotes her whole self to the br...
