De Profundis (Latin: "from the depth") is a letter composed by Wilde during his detainment in Reading Gaol, to "Bosie" (Lord Alfred Douglas). In the Start, Wilde describes their past relationship and extreme way of life which at last prompted Wilde's conviction and detainment for net foulness. He arraigns both Lord Alfred's vanity and his own shortcoming in acquiescing to those desires.
