I failed to mention this in my last post: Christ unites the two parts of the man by having them each defeat the evil representation of the opposing side. When John defeated the evil of intellectual stoicism, he received the strength of will and determination to make him "hard." When Vertue defeated the evil of sensuality, he caught fire and finally understood what it meant to desire, to want, to have a passion and feeling for something.
I think that's rather profound.
