Translation
But if we compare the sentiments in an impartial mood, we find that the conjugal sentiment is superior to all others in sweetness.
Purport
No one is higher or lower than anyone else in transcendental relationships with the Lord, for in the absolute realm everything is equal. But although these relationships are absolute, there are also transcendental differences between them. Thus the transcendental relationship of conjugal love is considered the highest perfection.
