" But tell me, what would happen if one of you had the fortune to look
upon essential beauty entire, pure and unalloyed; not infected with the
flesh and color of humanity, and ever so much more of mortal trash? What
if he could behold the divine beauty itself, in its unique form?
Do you call it a pitiful life for a man to lead—looking that way, observing
that vision by the proper means, and having it ever with him? Do but
consider,’ she said, ‘that there only will it befall him, as he sees the
beautiful through that which makes it visible, to breed not illusions but true
examples of virtue, since his contact is not with illusion but with truth. So
when he has begotten a true virtue and has reared it up he is destined to
win the friendship of Heaven; he, above all men, is immortal."
