"Coniugio igitur animi iunguntur et coalescunt, hique prius et arctius quam corpora, nec fluxo sensuum vel animorum affectu, sed deliberato et firmo voluntatum decreto: et ex hac animorum coagmentatione, Deo sic statuente, sacrum et inviolabile vinculum exoritur."
Pius XI, Casti connubii 7 (31 December 1930). I was put onto this by Jean Laffitte, "Le papes et la famille: de Casti Connubii à Familiaris Consortio," Revue internationale catholique Communio 40, no. 1 (janvier-février 2015): 17 (13-26), who calls this an "originality" of the encyclical.
