Ennead III.5 [50]: On love

Plotinus

It interprets the myths of the Symposium and the Phaedrus: Eros is both god and daimon, born of Poros and Penia, offspring of the soul's longing for beauty. It distinguishes the love of the heavenly Aphrodite, which looks to the intelligible, from the love of the common Aphrodite.
