The story

An aged Henry Van Cleve enters the opulent reception area of "where innumerable people had so often told him to go", to be personally greeted by "His Excellency". Henry petitions to be admitted, fully aware of the kind of life he has led, but some doubt exists as to his qualifications. To prove his worthiness (and unworthiness of Heaven), he begins to tell the story of his dissolute life.
