Document Summary
Stendahl, crystalliation and irving singer, the nature of love . Here is what happens in the soul: admiration, you think, how delightful it would be to kiss her, to be kissed by her, and so on , hope. You observe her perfections, and it is at this moment that a woman really ought to surrender, for the upmost moment of hope. The passion is so strong, and the pleasures so sharp, that they betray themselves unmistakably. To love is to enjoy seeing, touching, and sensing with all the senses, as closely as possible, a lovable object which loves him in return. If you are sure that a woman loves you, it is a pleasure to endow her with a thousand perfections and to count your blessings with infinite satisfactions. In the end you overrate wildly, and regard her as something fallen from heaven, unknown as yet, but certain to be yours.
