Conjugial beatitudes, satisfaction and delights can be given only by the Lord, and to those who go to Him (1030-1041 [CL 335, 336]).

Consequently they can be given to those only who are of the Christian Church; and it is in consequence of this that it is not allowable for Christians to marry more than one wife (1042-1050 [CL 337, 338]).
