Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 167 167. IX. THAT FOR CAUSES WHICH ARE NECESSITIES, WIVES STORE UP THIS PERCEPTION WITH THEMSELVES AND CONCEAL IT FROM THEIR HUSBANDS, IN ORDER THAT CONJUGIAL LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, AND CONFIDENCE, AND THUS THE BLESSEDNESS OF COHABITATION AND THE HAPPINESS OF LIFE, MAY BE FIRMLY ESTABLISHED. The storing up and concealing by wives of their perception of their husband's affections, are called necessities bec... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=167 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 172 172. XIV. THAT THE WIFE IS CONJOINED TO THE HUSBAND BY THE APPROPRIATION OF THE FORCES OF HIS MANHOOD, BUT THAT THIS TAKES PLACE ACCORDING TO THEIR MUTUAL SPIRITUAL LOVE. That such is the case, this also I have taken from the mouth of angels. They said that the prolific things expended by husbands are received by wives universally and add themselves to their life; that wives thus lead a life unani... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=172 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 173 173. XV. THAT THE WIFE THUS RECEIVES INTO HERSELF THE IMAGE OF HER HUSBAND, AND HENCE PERCEIVES, SEES, AND FEELS HIS AFFECTIONS. From the reasons adduced above, it follows as an attested truth that wives receive into themselves the things pertaining to the wisdom of their husbands, thus the properties of their souls and minds, and so, from being virgins, make themselves wives. The causes from whic... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=173 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 194 194. IX. THAT THIS FORMATION IS EFFECTED BY THE WIFE IN SECRET WAYS; AND THAT THIS IS WHAT IS MEANT BY THE WOMAN BEING CREATED WHILE THE MAN SLEPT. We read in the Book of Creation that Jehovah God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, that he might fall asleep, and then took one of his ribs and built it into a woman (Gen. 2:21, 22). That by the man's sleep and by his falling asleep is signified h... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=194 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 211 211. II. THAT WITH THOSE WHO ARE IN LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL, THE FACULTY OF BECOMING WISE INCREASES, BUT WITH THOSE WHO ARE NOT IN CONJUGIAL LOVE IT DECREASES. That the faculty of becoming wise increases with those who are in love truly conjugial is because with married partners, as shown with abundant reasons in the preceding chapters, this love is from wisdom and according to it. Moreover, because... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=211 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 221 221. XII. THAT DETERMINATIONS ARE AT THE GOOD PLEASURE OF THE HUSBAND. The reason is because men have the aforesaid abundance, and this varies with them according to the state of their mind and also according to the state of their body. The understanding is not so constant in its thoughts as the will is in its affections; for it is carried now up, now down; is now in a state serene and clear, now... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=221 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 240 240. V. THAT OF THE INTERNAL CAUSES OF COLD, THE FIRST IS REJECTION OF RELIGION BY BOTH PARTNERS. With those who cast the holy things of the Church, from the face to the occiput or from the breast to the back, there is no good love. If any comes to view from the body, there is still none in the spirit. With such men, goods place themselves outside evils and veil them over like a garment resplenden... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=240 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. It would be otherwise if the marriages entered into were not contracts endur... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=276 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 282 282. XI. THAT THEY ARE FOR THE SAKE OF AMENDMENTS AND FOR THE SAKE OF ACCOMMODATIONS. That the conjugial simulations which are appearances of love and friendship between partners of dissentient dispositions are for the sake of amendment, is because a spiritual man, bound by the matrimonial covenant to one who is natural, has no other intention than amendment of life, and on his part this is brough... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=282 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 299 299. It would be wholly different if the daughter were to give consent to her suitor independently without consultation with her parents or those in the place of parents; for she cannot weigh this matter, which concerns her future welfare, from judgment, knowledge, and love. Not from judgment because her judgment is as yet in ignorance in respect to conjugial life and is not in a state to compare... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=299 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 301 301. V. THAT CONSENT IS TO BE STRENGTHENED AND CONFIRMED BY A SOLEMN BETROTHAL. The reasons for betrothals are as follows: 1. That after them the two souls may mutually incline to each other. 2. That the universal love to the sex may be determined in each to one of the sex. 3. That the interior affections may be mutually known, and by applications may be conjoined in the inward cheerfulness of lov... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=301 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 these are classed among essentials to be publicly solemnized and formally celebrated, is confirmed by the following reasons: 1. That the wedding marks the end of the previous state inaugurate... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=306 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 309 309. XIII. THAT THE WEDDING IS TO BE CELEBRATED WITH FESTIVITY. The reasons are, because the ante-nuptial love which was that of the bridegroom and bride, then descends into their hearts, and by its diffusion therefrom into every part of their body, the delights of marriage are sensated. From these delights, their minds have festive thoughts and also express themselves in festivities so far as thi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=309 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 317 317. REPEATED MARRIAGES The question may come under discussion as to whether, after the death of the partner, conjugial love, which is the love of one man with one wife, can be separated or transferred or superinduced; and also, as to whether repeated marriages have anything in common with polygamy and so may be called successive polygamy; besides many other questions which with reasoners ar... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=317 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 332 332. POLYGAMY If investigation is made into the reason why polygamous marriages are wholly banned from the Christian world [it will be found that], by no one, howsoever endowed with the gift of genius in acutely searching into matters, can that reason be seen as in clear day, unless he has first been instructed THAT THERE IS A LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL; THAT THIS LOVE IS NOT POSSIBLE EXCEPT BETWE... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=332 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 333 333. I. THAT EXCEPT WITH ONE WIFE THERE CAN BE NO LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL, CONSEQUENTLY, NO TRULY CONJUGIAL FRIENDSHIP, CONFIDENCE, POTENCY, AND NO SUCH CONJUNCTION OF MINDS THAT THE TWO MAY BE ONE FLESH. That at this day, love truly conjugial is so rare as to be generally unknown, has been pointed out several times above. That nevertheless, it does actually exist, has also been shown in its own chap... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=333 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 337 337. IV. CONSEQUENTLY, THAT LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL IS NOT POSSIBLE EXCEPT WITH THOSE WHO ARE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH. That there is no conjugial love such as is described in its special chapter (nos. 57-73) and in the chapters that follow it, thus such as it is in its essence, save with those who are of the Christian Church, is because that love is from the Lord alone, and nowhere else is the Lord s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=337 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 345 345. X. THAT POLYGAMY IS LASCIVIOUSNESS is because its love is divided among many and, being a love belonging to the external or natural man, is love of the sex and so is not conjugial love, which alone is chaste. That polygamous love is divided among many is well known; and divided love is not conjugial love, for the latter cannot be separated from the one of the sex. Hence a divided love is lasc... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=345 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 355 355. The second Memorable Relation: Once, when looking into the world of spirits, I saw in a meadow, men clothed in garments like those of men in the world, and from this I knew that they were lately come from the world. I went to them and stood at their side, that I might listen to what they were saying among themselves. They were speaking about heaven, and one of them who knew somethi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=355 Wisdom's Delight in Marriage Love: Followed by Insanity’s Pleasure in Promiscuous Love 370 370. The above illustrates the nature of the jealous fire into which polygamous conjugial love breaks out--a fire breaking out into anger and revenge, into anger in the case of the meek, and into revenge in the case of the fierce. This is because their love is natural and does not partake of what is spiritual. This follows from what was demonstrated in the chapter on Polygamy, namely, that polygam... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ml§ion=370
