Orlando Furioso: Part Two, trans. Barbara Reynolds (Penguin UK, 1991),

No man, the proverb says, will hesitate
To gather firewood from a fallen tree.

Quasi ascosi avea gli occhi ne la testa,
La faccia macra, e come un osso asciutta,
La chioma rabuffata, orrida e mesta,
La barba folta, spaventosa e brutta.
