Love has several manifestation. The lower category of loveis "wanton " love focused on single person. It is quite absurb to spend time for the cause of "little idol". woman. Man is created for more than this - "for the contemplation of heaven and all noble object". Yet there has the chance to get affected by love. Sometimes even the careful persons cannot get rid of it. But the point is they have to limit the degree of expression in love. Otherwise it can degrade the nature and the value of things.
The degradation of nature and value of a person is done for the exaggeration that lover is supposed to do for making his beloved pleased. This "speaking in perputual" return him as a dividen in terms of creating the habit of flattery and pride in him. Both flattery and pride do accelerate the downward pace of a person. Citing example from the past, the author says that being engaged brings nothing but poverty and ignorance. This is how love of worst category downgrades the human being.
