There sighs, lamentations and loud wailings resounded through the starless air, so that at first it made me weep; strange tongues, horrible language, words of pain, tones of anger, voices loud and hoarse, and with these the sound of hands, made a tumult which is whirling through that air forever dark, and sand eddies in a whirlwind.

The sad souls of those who lived without blame and without praise.

In the middle of the journey of our life I came to myself within a dark wood where the straight way was lost.
|
O human race born to fly upward, wherefore at a little wind dost thou fall.
|
In the middle of the journey of our life I found myself astray in a dark wood where the straight road had been lost sight of.
|
There is no greater sorrow Than to be mindful of the happy time In misery.

He listens well who takes notes
|
Avarice, envy, pride, Three fatal sparks, have set the hearts of all On Fire.
|
For what is liberty but the unhampered translation of will into act?
|
The customs and fashions of men change like leaves on the bough, some of which go and others come
|
There is no greater sorrow Than to be mindful of the happy time In misery.
|
Through me you pass into the city of woe: Through me you pass into eternal pain: Through me among the people lost for aye. Justice the founder of my fabric moved: To rear me was the task of power divine, Supremest wisdom, and primeval love. Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I shall endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.
