Classical Love

Excitement, Sorrow, Anticipation, Anger, Wonder, Frustration, Relaxation. The most surprising, and wonderful composition is that of love. There is no one sort of feeling that can exhibit this. ‘Tis ever compounded, And to its composition are requisite all the aforesaid feelings, Mixed in due proportion. You may behold with admiration, that all the feelings of life being made to converge, And thereby to be mixed again, Produce love. Entirely and perfect emotion in it true rainbow. Solids feel fluids. Fixed is volatile. Gross includes subtle. Ascending becomes descending. All the while Earth lives in its own absolute true space and time. Love.
