other, n. 49.  In this case there is given to the man a suitable wife, and to the woman a suitable husband, n. 50.  Married pairs enjoy similar communications with each other as in the world, but more delightful and blessed, yet without prolification; in the place of which they experience spiritual prolification, which is that of love and wisdom, n. 51, 52.  This is the case with those who go to heaven; but it is otherwise with those who go to hell, n. 53, 54.

ON LOVE TRULY CONJUGIAL, n. 57-73.

There exists a love truly conjugial, which at this day is so rare, that it is not known what is its quality, and scarcely that it exists, n. 58, 59.  This love originates in the marriage of good and truth, n. 60, 61.  There is a correspondence of this love with the marriage of the Lord and the church, n. 62, 63.  This love, from its origin and correspondence, is celestial, spiritual, holy, pure, and clean, above every other love imparted by the Lord to the angels of heaven and the men of the church, n. 64.  It is also the foundation love of all celestial and spiritual loves, and thence of all natural loves, n. 65-67.  Into this love are collected all joys and delights from first to last, n. 68, 69.  None, however, come into this love, and can remain in it, but those who approach the Lord, and love the truths of the church, and practise its goods, n. 70-72.  This love was the love of loves with the ancients, who lived in the golden, silver, and copper ages, n. 73.

ON THE ORIGIN OF CONJUGIAL LOVE AS GROUNDED IN THE MARRIAGE OF GOOD AND TRUTH n. 83-102.

Good and truth are the universals of creation, and thence are in all created things; but they are in created subjects according to the form of each, n. 84-86.  There is neither solitary good nor solitary truth; but in all cases they are conjoined, n. 87.  There is the truth of good, and from this the good of truth; or truth grounded in good, and good grounded in that truth; and in those two principles is implanted from creation an inclination to join themselves together into a one, n. 88, 89.  In the subjects of the animal kingdom, the truth of good, or truth grounded in good, is male (or masculine); and the good of that truth, or good grounded in that truth, is female (or feminine), n. 90, 91.  From the influx of the marriage of good and truth from the Lord, the love of the sex and conjugial love are derived, n. 92, 93.  The love of the sex belongs to the external or natural man; and hence it is common to every animal, n. 94.  But conjugial love belongs to the internal or spiritual man; and hence this love is peculiar to man, n. 95, 96.  With man conjugial love is in the love of the sex as a gem in its matrix, n. 97.  The love of the sex with man is not the origin of conjugial love, but its first rudiment; thus it is like an external natural principle, in which an internal spiritual principle is implanted, n. 98.  During the implantation of conjugial love, the love of the sex inverts itself, and becomes the chaste love of the sex, n. 99.  The male and the female were created to be the essential form of the marriage of good and truth, n. 100.  Married partners are that form in their inmost principles, and thence in what is derived from those principles, in proportion as the interiors of their minds are opened, n. 101, 102.
