John Jacques wrote of Marriage: “She was a beautiful woman. ... Marriage is a wonderful thing. the wonder of wonders. It is a veritable garden of delights of the land of felicities unspeakable, a perennial fountain of the most exquisite sweetness, happiness, pleasures imaginable, a land of enchantment. ... Man is never happier than when making a woman happy, in ennobling, assisting her to fulfill her royal destiny according to the original intent and heavenly design. Not only honorable is marriage and undefiled, but that estate the consummation of all delights the crowning glory of every heavenly desire, no mortal tongue can tell how good it is and those who know its real ecstasy will chant its praise throughout eternity. But it is nothing without love pureborn, that in its nature is itself divine and all essential to the perfect life.” -John Jaques writes in Tell My Story, Too, 8th Edition, Jolene S. Allphin,231.
