There was a word of yours just now that impressed me a little when you asked me who we were to know all the springs of God's unfortunate creatures. You applied that, as I understood, to capital cases only. But does it I ask myself does it not apply all through? Is it any less difficult to judge of a good man or of a half-good man, than of the worst criminal at the bar?
It has been argued, that in all the parties concerned in these curious ethics there is a generous love of distinction, and a strong craving after life, action, and sympathy of some kind or other. Granted; there are all sorts of half-good, half-barbarous feelings in Dante's poem.
He was not a bad man, but a half-good man, which is perhaps worse weak, without spring, without moral strength, but for the rest, in his own opinion, a good father, a good son, a good husband, a good man and perhaps he was good, if to be so it is enough to possess an easy kindness, which is quickly touched, and that animal affection by which a man loves his kin as a part of himself.
Of course, a large part of the fun of this game lies in the witty incorporation of all sorts of extraneous objects. But the incorporation must be witty, or you may soon convert the whole thing into an incoherent muddle of half-good ideas. I have taken two photographs, one to the right and one to the left of this agreeable place.
