There appeared a magnificent palace, and in its inmost a temple. In the midst of the latter was a table of gold, upon which was the Word, beside which two angels were standing. Around it were seats in three row... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=962 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 48 48. II. THAT CONJUGIAL LOVE LIKEWISE REMAINS SUCH AS IT HAD BEEN WITH THE MAN INTERIORLY, THAT IS, IN HIS INTERIOR WILL AND THOUGHT, IN THE WORLD.

But because few know the diff... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=48 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 82 82.

To the above, I will add two Memorable Relations. First: Some time after [the second visit to Parnassus (no. 182)], I looked towards the city Athens, of which something was said in a former Relation (no. 156a), and heard thence an unusual clamor. 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... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=207 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 236 236.

That such is the case with married partners if their first love declines and becomes cold, is too well known to need comment. The reason is because conjugial cold res... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=236 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 264 264. After this, the earth again opened but on the right; and I saw another devil rising up.

His loins were naked and black as soot, and through the blackness was the dusky glow of fire as of a hearth. The ankles... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=264 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 276 276. V. THAT NEVERTHELESS, IN THE WORLD, MATRIMONIES ARE TO CONTINUE TO THE END OF LIFE. This is adduced in order more clearly to present before the reason the necessity, utility, and truth of the statement that where the conjugial love is not genuine, it should yet be affected, that is, should seem as if it were genuine.

Here, as in no. 423, by scortatory love is meant the love of adultery which destroys conjugial love.
