This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book explores that the saints and mystics are great lovers in quite a different sense from the poets. Both St. Francis and St. Teresa speak of their great mystical love in the terms made fashionable in the courts of love by the troubadours. The book illustrates the division of the poet's eros and the saint's agape is to emphasize the permeation upon all levels of even a highly Christian age, of the heretical 'romantic' dualism, by bringing up Katharism and the troubadour culture. With the coming of the troubadours in whom poet and lover are one, however, romantic poetry begins and the powerful tension of body and soul snaps, and they tend to draw wider and wider apart. The poet and the lover are sometimes resurrected in the saint but only as they were willing to die, as Christ was willing to die.
