Explanation
An "ignominy" is shame, disgrace, or humiliation, so because he suffered one final "ignominy" after death, we can infer that his tomb must have been "desecrated," which means defiled, disrespected, or dishonored. "Absolved" means forgiven or removed blame from; "vitalized" means gave strength and energy to; and "secured" means fixed so something can't be moved or assured the protection of.
