Explanation:

The line "Rage supplanted religious fervour" was taken from the novel "The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas. Dante, the main character, has been unjustly arrested and is now doomed to spend to rest of his life in prison, away from his former life and the woman he loved. At first, Dantes relies on his religious belief to try and overcome the maddening depression that haunts him. He prays over and over again. However, he eventually exchanges faith for wrath, losing control, cursing, throwing himself against the walls. It seems that God will not act, and that men are are all evil. Dantes begins to imagine his persecutors being tortured and dying.
