Key Notes
definition
Heaven in the Aeneid is piety: obedience to divine prophecy, including the prophecy that Troy must be destroyed so Rome can be created and Aeneas can found it.

diagnosis
The poet's truth-telling is compulsory: a fire burns inside the poet and must be released or the poet will be unable to sleep, eat, breathe, or survive the pressure.
