Philosophy bids Boethius declare his griefs. He relates the story of his unjust accusation and ruin. He concludes with a prayer (Song V.) that the moral disorder in human affairs may be set right. In the analysis: on the competition between **Dionysus and Apollo**; **The Ass and The Lyre**; Boethius similarities to the **Book of Job**.
