Neither a vision of despair nor of final perfection, it is concerned with transition — with effort, discipline, and the gradual reordering of the soul.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe poem follows Dante and his guide as they ascend the mountain of Purgatory, encountering souls engaged in correction rather than condemnation.
