Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Friendship and Love
The effect of the indulgence of this human affection is a certain cordial exhilaration. In poetry, and in com mon speech, the emotions of benevoi lence and complacency which are felt toward others are likened to the ma terial effects of fire; so swift, or much more swift, more active, more cheer ing are these fine inward irradiations. From the highest degree of passionate love, to the lowest degree of good-will, they make the sweetness of life.
