Dear David,

I'm sorry if the wording of my last response seemed "volatile" and
"combative" to you, and I can assure you it was not meant to be so. I
do apologize for whatever I did to give you that impression. I will
try to word my responses more carefully in future. Starting now.

Regarding the question, I still don't see how "their certain love" is
described by the the words that follow. Could you please enlighten me
as to which words you were referring to, and how they describe the
kind of love in question?

Thank you.

Mike Jing
