Additional quotes by Dante Alighieri

"[Sonetto IX]
Spesse fiate vegnomi a la mente
le oscure qualità ch’Amor mi dona,
e vienmene pietà, sì che sovente
io dico: "Lasso!, avviene elli a persona?";

Ch’Amor m’assale subitamente,
sì che la vita quasi m’abbandona:
campami un spirto vivo solamente,
e que’ riman perché di voi ragiona.

Poscia mi sforzo, ché mi voglio aitare;
e così smorto, d’onne valor vòto,
vegno a vedervi, credendo guerire:

e se io levo li occhi per guardare,
nel cor mi si comincia uno tremoto,
che fa da’ polsi l’anima partire."

"And he began, "What chance or destiny
has brought you here before your final day?
And who is he who leads your pilgrimage?"
"Up there in life beneath the quiet stars
I lost my way," I answered, "in a valley,
before I'd reached the fullness of my age.
I turned my shoulders on it yesterday:
this soul appeared as I was falling back,
and by the road through Hell he leads me home."
"Follow your star and you will never fail
to find your glorious port," he said to me"
