Lovers must not, like usurers, live for themselves alone. They must finally turn from their gaze at one another back toward the community. If they had only themselves to consider, lovers would not need to marry, but they must think of others and of other things.

Lovers, then, "die" into their union with one another as a soul "dies" into its union with God.
