I had to do a poetry project and I picked this poems as one of the poems to
use. I had to write an explication on it, and looking at other poem's
comments, most don't have anything useful on them. So, to help someone out,
I think the meaning of this poem is the ghost is trying to tell the priest
a lesosn he learned the hard way, that it is the guilt in a man's heart
that judges him, not God.
