411. Love calls everything that favors it its goods, and everything that leads as means to goods it calls its truths. And because these truths serve as means, it loves them, and they become matters of its affection, and so become affections in form. Truth, therefore, is nothing else than the form of some affection belonging to love. The human form is nothing else than the form of all the affections of love. Its beauty is its intelligence, which it acquires for itself through the truths that it receives by the external and internal senses of either sight or hearing. These truths are what love disposes into the forms of its affections, forms which exist in great variety, but all of which derive a similarity from their general form, which is the human one. All of these forms are beautiful to the love and attractive, while all others are not beautiful to it and are unattractive. It follows from this as well that love joins itself to the intellect and not the reverse, and that any reciprocal conjunction is attributable also to love. That is what we mean by the statement that love or the will causes wisdom or the intellect to be joined to it in return.
