Fatto v'avete dio d'oro e d'argento ; e che altro è da voi a l'idolatre, se non ch'elli uno, e voi ne orate cento ? Vous vous êtes fait un dieu d'or… - Dante Alighieri

Fatto v'avete dio d'oro e d'argento ;
e che altro è da voi a l'idolatre,
se non ch'elli uno, e voi ne orate cento ?

Vous vous êtes fait un dieu d'or et d'argent ;
en quoi différez-vous de l'idolâtre,
sinon qu'il en prie un, et vous en priez cent ?
