that stain my skin, nor for the lack

Statius - Purgatorio, Divine Comedy

Q

Identify the Speaker and Book:
“You living ones continue to assign
to Heaven every cause, as if it were
the necessary source of every motion.
If this were so, then your free will would be
destroyed, and there would be no equity
in joy for doing good, in grief for evil.
The heavens set your appetites in motion-
not all your appetites, but even if
that were the case, you would have received both light
on good and evil, and free will, which though
it struggles in its first wars with the Heavens,
then conquers all, if it has been well nurtured.”

A
