Purgatorio: Canto 16

The veil of wrath and righteous anger

Marco Lombardo tells us that we can’t blame the stars for human evil. He also says that the church and state must return to their rightful places. As Dante and Virgil continue on, Marco explains that he is not ready to escape the cloudy veil of the Terrace of Wrath.
