It is a stage at which Dante is humbled and shamed by the memory of his sins and unfaithfulness to Beatrice. In the scheme of Eliot's poem, this twilight kingdom is the condition in which man has to face the truth about himself and life, as Kurtz did. Until Dante is freed from shame and sin, he is unable to meet Beatrice's gaze (Southam, 103, 100).
