Boethius acknowledges that he is but recollecting truths he once knew. Philosophy goes on to show that it is goodness also by which the whole world is governed (*This solves the third. No distinct account is given of the first, but an answer may be gathered from the general argument of bks. ii., iii., and iv.*) Boethius professes compunction for his former folly. But the paradox of evil is introduced, and he is once more perplexed. |
