This comparison shows he feels that he has not paid for the mistakes he has made, but that this will not go unpunished because life will charge him until he pays. This shows that for many years he felt guilty and responsible for what happened to his friend.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • "The Seventh Man," tells the story of a man who was troubled by an experience he had as a child.
  • This experience occurred when he watched his friend being dragged by a large wave, which took him to the sea, causing the child to drown.
  • The Seventh Man was scared by the situation and couldn't do anything to help his friend.

His lack of attitude to help his friend is seen as a responsibility he rejected. He believes his friend's death is his fault, a mistake he made that must be paid for if he and his friend are to find peace.
