Answer:

<h3>Voltaire also seems to support empathy and forgiveness towards criminals. </h3>

Explanation:

Voltaire's episode with the King of the Bulgarians suggests that he was a <u>sympathetic and compassionate person</u>. In this episode Voltaire explains how Candide was punished so severely without mercy.

However when the King saw Candide, he forgave him instantly and asked his physicians to treat with the best medicines. It portrays the King's sympathy towards wrong doers or accused criminals.

Similarly, V<u>oltaire also seems to support empathy and forgiveness towards criminals</u>. He does not encourage harsh punishments or biased judgement in the courts.
