" "This mountain’s of such sort that climbing it is hardest at the start; but as we rise, the slope grows less unkind.

His Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia) and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, is widely considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in the Italian language.

[Stanza]
Sì lungiamente m’ha tenuto Amore
e costumato a la sua segnoria,
che sì com’elli m’era forte in pria,
così mi era soave ora nel core.
Però quando mi tolle sì ’l valore,
che li spiriti par che fuggan via,
allor sente la frale anima mia
tanta dolcezza, che ’l viso ne smore,
poi prende Amore in me tanta vertute,
che fa li miei spiriti gir parlando,
ed escon for chiamando
la donna mia, per darmi più salute.
Questo m’avvene ovunque ella mi vede,
e sì è cosa umil, che nol si crede.
