For the Lord says: If anyone lusts after ano...

I have talked with the angels about peace, saying that what is called peace in the world is when wars and hostilities cease between kingdoms, and when enmities or hostilities cease among men; also that internal peace is believed to consist in rest of mind when cares are removed, especially in tranquility and enjoyment from success in affairs. But the angels said that rest of mind and tranquil...

310. I. WHAT ONE'S OWN PRUDENCE IS, AND WHAT PRUDENCE NOT ONE'S OWN IS.

501. THE LUST OF DEFLORATION The lusts treated of in the following four chapters are not merely lusts of adultery, they are more grievous, for they Come only from adulteries, being taken up after adulteries have become loathsome.
