Short excerpt (error in transcript apparently):

"...While a teenager in school, Symonds was “awakened” by his Professor of Latin at Oxford, John Conington, to the “rightness” of homosexual relations.

The declamatio stories of the fictional Plato were being used as an excuse to foster homosexual relations between his schoolmates.

Conington especially enjoyed and approved of romantic relationships between MEN and boys. Conington had earlier given Symonds a copy of Ionica, a collection of homoerotic verse by William Johnson Cory, the influential Eton master and himself also an advocate of paedophilia with young boys.
