63. Further particulars concerning Love and its essence and quality may be known from what has been said and shewn above concerning Good and Truth; also from what has been said and shewn above concerning Will and Understanding; and also from what has been said and shewn concerning the Internal and External Man; for all things which belong to love are referable either to goods or to evils; in like manner all the things which belong to the will: and as the two Loves of heaven open and form the internal spiritual man, and the two Loves of hell close and destroy it, therefore applications may be made and conclusions drawn therefrom respecting the quality of Love in general and particular.
