It parallels the private confession taking place in the poem.
Explanation:
Before the start of the poem, Eliot includes an epigraph from the Italian Renaissance poet Dante’s Inferno, in which the poet journeys through the levels of hell. The lines are from a condemned character who is willing to reveal his crimes only because he thinks Dante will never leave hell and be able to tell anyone else. So before the poem itself begins, we have an allusion to hell and a confession that the confessor thinks will remain secret.
We can observe that although the author could have simply finished the story in a conventional way he opted for adding an epigraph in order to highlight the concept of deaths and hell (and society's -mis-conceptions of both)
