In practice, sin’s counterfeit of God’s love is impossible to perfect, for perfection here ends in the void, the undoing of the bonds of creation. The soul that falls away into sin continues to love mortal beloveds, but its attachments lack measure, and so its love goes begging. It wanders about aimlessly in a ‘wasteland of need’ (regio egestatis).
