Synopsis
Excerpt from The Marsh of Acheron; Or, the Pagan Purgagtory: According to Socrates
Hese verses are meant to illustrate the central idea of Socrates, as unfolded in his philosophic vision, The Vision of Er. The consequences of sin, its gradations in guilt, its retributive conditions, and the essen tial verity taught in the subsequent words and works of Christ - that in order to be for given man must forgive - are broadly and grandly outlined in the vision of the ancient sage.
