The Divine Comedy
translated by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
PARADISO
Paradiso此Canto I
The glory of Him who moveth everything
Doth penetrate the universe察and shine
In one part more and in another less。
Within that heaven which most his light receives
Was I察and things beheld which to repeat
Nor knows察nor can察who from above descends
Because in drawing near to its desire
Our intellect ingulphs itself so far
That after it the memory cannot go。
Truly whatever of the holy realm
I had the power to treasure in my mind
Shall now become the subject of my song。
O good Apollo察for this last emprise
Make of me such a vessel of thy power
As giving the beloved laurel asks
One summit of Parnassus hitherto
Has been enough for me察but now with both
I needs must enter the arena left。
Enter into my bosom察thou察and breathe
As at the time when Marsyas thou didst draw
Out of the scabbard of those limbs of his。
O power divine察lend'st thou thyself to me
So that the shadow of the blessed realm
Stamped in my brain I can make manifest
Thou'lt see me come unto thy darling tree
And crown myself thereafter with those leaves
Of which the theme and thou shall make me worthy。
So seldom察Father察do we gather them
For triumph or of Caesar or of Poet
The fault and shame of human inclinations撮
That the Peneian foliage should bring forth
Joy to the joyous Delphic deity
When any one it makes to thirst for it。
A little spark is followed by great flame
Perchance with better voices after me
Shall prayer be made that Cyrrha may respond
To mortal men by passages diverse
Uprises the world's lamp察but by that one
Which circles four uniteth with three crosses
With better course and with a better star
Conjoined it issues察and the mundane wax
Tempers and stamps more after its own fashion。
Almost that passage had made morning there
And evening here察and there was wholly white
That hemisphere察and black the other part
When Beatrice towards the left´hand side
I saw turned round察and gazing at the sun
Never did eagle fasten so upon it
And even as a second ray is wont
To issue from the first and reascend
Like to a pilgrim who would fain return
Thus of her action察through the eyes infused
In my imagination察mine I made
And sunward fixed mine eyes beyond our wont。
There much is lawful which is here unlawful
Unto our powers察by virtue of the place
Made for the human species as its own。
Not long I bore it察nor so little while
But I beheld it sparkle round about
Like iron that comes molten from the fire
And suddenly it seemed that day to day
Was added察as if He who has the power
Had with another sun the heaven adorned。
With eyes upon the everlasting wheels
Stood Beatrice all intent察and I察on her
Fixing my vision from above removed
Such at her aspect inwardly became
As Glaucus察tasting of the herb that made him
Peer of the other gods beneath the sea。
To represent transhumanise in words
Impossible were察the example察then察suffice
Him for whom Grace the experience reserves。
If I was merely what of me thou newly
Createdst察Love who governest the heaven
Thou knowest察who didst lift me with thy light
When now the wheel察which thou dost make eternal
Desiring thee察made me attentive to it
By harmony thou dost modulate and measure
Then seemed to me so much of heaven enkindled
By the sun's flame察that neither rain nor river
E'er made a lake so widely spread abroad。
The newness of the sound and the great light
Kindled in me a longing for their cause
Never before with such acuteness felt
Whence she察who saw me as I saw myself
To quiet in me my perturbed mind
Opened her mouth察ere I did mine to ask
And she began此 Thou makest thyself so dull
With false imagining察that thou seest not
What thou wouldst see if thou hadst shaken it off。
Thou art not upon earth察as thou believest
But lightning察fleeing its appropriate site
Ne'er ran as thou察who thitherward returnest。;
If of my former doubt I was divested
By these brief little words more smiled than spoken
I in a new one was the more ensnared
And said此 Already did I rest content
From great amazement察but am now amazed
In what way I transcend these bodies light。;
Whereupon she察after a pitying sigh
Her eyes directed tow'rds me with that look
A mother casts on a delirious child
And she began此 All things whate'er they be
Have order among themselves察and this is form
That makes the universe resemble God。
Here do the higher creatures see the footprints
Of the Eternal Power察which is the end
Whereto is made the law already mentioned。
In the order that I speak of are inclined
All natures察by their destinies diverse
More or less near unto their origin
Hence they move onward unto ports diverse
O'er the great sea of being察and each one
With instinct given it which bears it on。
This bears away the fire towards the moon
This is in mortal hearts the motive power
This binds together and unites the earth。
Nor only the created things that are
Without intelligence this bow shoots forth
But those that have both intellect and love。
The Providence that regulates all this
Makes with its light the heaven forever quiet
Wherein that turns which has the greatest haste。
And thither now察as to a site decreed
Bears us away the virtue of that cord
Which aims its arrows at a joyous mark。
True is it察that as oftentimes the form
Accords not with the intention of the art
Because in answering is matter deaf
So likewise from this course doth deviate
Sometimes the creature察who the power possesses
Though thus impelled察to swerve some other way
In the same wise as one may see the fire
Fall from a cloud撮 if the first impetus
Earthward is wrested by some false delight。
Thou shouldst not wonder more察if well I judge
At thine ascent察than at a rivulet
From some high mount descending to the lowland。
Marvel it would be in thee察if deprived
Of hindrance察thou wert seated down below
As if on earth the living fire were quiet。;
Thereat she heavenward turned again her face。
Paradiso此Canto II
O Ye察who in some pretty little boat
Eager to listen察have been following
Behind my ship察that singing sails along
Turn back to look again upon your shores
Do not put out to sea察lest peradventure
In losing me察you might yourselves be lost。
The sea I sail has never yet been passed
Minerva breathes察and pilots me Apollo
And Muses nine point out to me the Bears。
Ye other few who have the neck uplifted
Betimes to th' bread of Angels upon which
One liveth here and grows not sated by it
Well may you launch upon the deep salt´sea
Your vessel察keeping still my wake before you
Upon the water that grows smooth again。
Those glorious ones who unto Colchos passed
Were not so wonder´struck as you shall be
When Jason they beheld a ploughman made
The con´created and perpetual thirst
For the realm deiform did bear us on
As swift almost as ye the heavens behold。
Upward gazed Beatrice察and I at her
And in such space perchance as strikes a bolt
And flies察and from the notch unlocks itself
Arrived I saw me where a wondrous thing
Drew to itself my sight察and therefore she
From whom no care of mine could be concealed
Towards me turning察blithe as beautiful
Said unto me此 Fix gratefully thy mind
On God察who unto the first star has brought us。;
It seemed to me a cloud encompassed us
Luminous察dense察consolidate and bright
As adamant on which the sun is striking。
Into itself did the eternal pearl
Receive us察even as water doth receive
A ray of light察remaining still unbroken。
If I was body察。and we here conceive not
How one dimension tolerates another
Which needs must be if body enter body撮
More the desire should be enkindled in us
That essence to behold察wherein is seen
How God and our own nature were united。
There will be seen what we receive by faith
Not demonstrated察but self´evident
In guise of the first truth that man believes。
I made reply此 Madonna察as devoutly
As most I can do I give thanks to Him
Who has removed me from the mortal world。
But tell me what the dusky spots may be
Upon this body察which below on earth
Make people tell that fabulous tale of Cain拭
Somewhat she smiled察and then察 If the opinion
Of mortals be erroneous察─she said
;Where'er the key of sense doth not unlock
Certes察the shafts of wonder should not pierce thee
Now察forasmuch as察following the senses
Thou seest that the reason has short wings。
But tell me what thou think'st of it thyself。;
And I此 What seems to us up here diverse
Is caused察I think察by bodies rare and dense。;
And she此 Right truly shalt thou see immersed
In error thy belief察if well thou hearest
The argument that I shall make against it。
Lights many the eighth sphere displays to you
Wh
