Excerpt from Christian Marriage: The Ceremony, History and Significance; Ritual, Practical and Arch???ological Notes; And the Text of the English, Roman, Greek, and Jewish Ceremonies In this self-trusting, restraint-hating, bond-break ing age, when the true meaning of Liberty is so widely ignored and so often misunderstood, it need not be said that the conception of the Marriage tie, as most generally current among the masses of men today, has not escaped a certain degree of obscurity, not to say falsity; and with the spread of the democratic sentiment in all lands and the increasing exaltation of the individual, both this obscurity and this misunderstanding, even under our brightening Christian civilization, appear rather to be deepening than clearing away. It seems therefore necessary to observe here that there are three aspects of Marriage, each of which in its sphere is very real and very true, and has its own important bearing on the nature of the engagement and the indelibility of the union. These aspects are, that which appears from the point of View of the State; that which appears from the point of view of the Church; and that which appears from the point of view of Personal Sentiment, or natural Love, so-called.
