The true marriage with humanity was done in Creation.
Nothing was lacking, either to the soul or to the body.
Everything was done with royal sumptuousness [weelderigheid]. An immense palace was prepared for the human nature, such that no king or emperor can have one similar to it, which is the whole universe.
A starry heaven and its vault, a sun whose light would never be extinguished, flourishing gardens in which the happy couple - God and man - would stroll, amuse itself and maintain the continuous, uninterrupted feast of our marriage, and garments, woven not with matter, but formed of purest light by Our Power, as befitted royal persons.
Everything was beauty in man, soul and body.
Because He who prepared the marriage and formed it was of an unreachable Beauty.
So from the external sumptuousness of the so many enchanting beauties present in the whole of Creation, you can imagine the internal seas of sanctity, of beauty, of light, of science, etc., that the interior of man possessed.
All the acts of man, internal and external, were as many musical keys that formed the most beautiful melodies, sweet, melodious, harmonious, that maintained the joy of the marriage.
And each additional act that he would dispose himself to do was a new little sonata that he would prepare, to call his Spouse to delight with him.
