Of great Costanza this is the effulgence
Who from the second wind of Suabia
Brought forth the third and latest puissance。;
Thus unto me she spake察and then began
;Ave Maria; singing察and in singing
Vanished察as through deep water something heavy。
My sight察that followed her as long a time
As it was possible察when it had lost her
Turned round unto the mark of more desire
And wholly unto Beatrice reverted
But she such lightnings flashed into mine eyes
That at the first my sight endured it not
And this in questioning more backward made me。
Paradiso此Canto IV
Between two viands察equally removed
And tempting察a free man would die of hunger
Ere either he could bring unto his teeth。
So would a lamb between the ravenings
Of two fierce wolves stand fearing both alike
And so would stand a dog between two does。
Hence察if I held my peace察myself I blame not
Impelled in equal measure by my doubts
Since it must be so察nor do I commend。
I held my peace察but my desire was painted
Upon my face察and questioning with that
More fervent far than by articulate speech。
Beatrice did as Daniel had done
Relieving Nebuchadnezzar from the wrath
Which rendered him unjustly merciless
And said此 Well see I how attracteth thee
One and the other wish察so that thy care
Binds itself so that forth it does not breathe。
Thou arguest察if good will be permanent
The violence of others察for what reason
Doth it decrease the measure of my merit
Again for doubting furnish thee occasion
Souls seeming to return unto the stars
According to the sentiment of Plato。
These are the questions which upon thy wish
Are thrusting equally察and therefore first
Will I treat that which hath the most of gall。
He of the Seraphim most absorbed in God
Moses察and Samuel察and whichever John
Thou mayst select察I say察and even Mary
Have not in any other heaven their seats
Than have those spirits that just appeared to thee
Nor of existence more or fewer years
But all make beautiful the primal circle
And have sweet life in different degrees
By feeling more or less the eternal breath。
They showed themselves here察not because allotted
This sphere has been to them察but to give sign
Of the celestial which is least exalted。
To speak thus is adapted to your mind
Since only through the sense it apprehendeth
What then it worthy makes of intellect。
On this account the Scripture condescends
Unto your faculties察and feet and hands
To God attributes察and means something else
And Holy Church under an aspect human
Gabriel and Michael represent to you
And him who made Tobias whole again。
That which Timaeus argues of the soul
Doth not resemble that which here is seen
Because it seems that as he speaks he thinks。
He says the soul unto its star returns
Believing it to have been severed thence
Whenever nature gave it as a form。
Perhaps his doctrine is of other guise
Than the words sound察and possibly may be
With meaning that is not to be derided。
If he doth mean that to these wheels return
The honour of their influence and the blame
Perhaps his bow doth hit upon some truth。
This principle ill understood once warped
The whole world nearly察till it went astray
Invoking Jove and Mercury and Mars。
The other doubt which doth disquiet thee
Less venom has察for its malevolence
Could never lead thee otherwhere from me。
That as unjust our justice should appear
In eyes of mortals察is an argument
Of faith察and not of sin heretical。
But still察that your perception may be able
To thoroughly penetrate this verity
As thou desirest察I will satisfy thee。
If it be violence when he who suffers
Co´operates not with him who uses force
These souls were not on that account excused
For will is never quenched unless it will
But operates as nature doth in fire
If violence a thousand times distort it。
Hence察if it yieldeth more or less察it seconds
The force察and these have done so察having power
Of turning back unto the holy place。
If their will had been perfect察like to that
Which Lawrence fast upon his gridiron held
And Mutius made severe to his own hand
It would have urged them back along the road
Whence they were dragged察as soon as they were free
But such a solid will is all too rare。
And by these words察if thou hast gathered them
As thou shouldst do察the argument is refuted
That would have still annoyed thee many times。
But now another passage runs across
Before thine eyes察and such that by thyself
Thou couldst not thread it ere thou wouldst be weary。
I have for certain put into thy mind
That soul beatified could never lie
For it is near the primal Truth
And then thou from Piccarda might'st have heard
Costanza kept affection for the veil
So that she seemeth here to contradict me。
Many times察brother察has it come to pass
That察to escape from peril察with reluctance
That has been done it was not right to do
E'en as Alcmaeon who察being by his father
Thereto entreated察his own mother slew
Not to lose pity pitiless became。
At this point I desire thee to remember
That force with will commingles察and they cause
That the offences cannot be excused。
Will absolute consenteth not to evil
But in so far consenteth as it fears
If it refrain察to fall into more harm。
Hence when Piccarda uses this expression
She meaneth the will absolute察and I
The other察so that both of us speak truth。;
Such was the flowing of the holy river
That issued from the fount whence springs all truth
This put to rest my wishes one and all。
;O love of the first lover察O divine察
Said I forthwith察 whose speech inundates me
And warms me so察it more and more revives me
My own affection is not so profound
As to suffice in rendering grace for grace
Let Him察who sees and can察thereto respond。
Well I perceive that never sated is
Our intellect unless the Truth illume it
Beyond which nothing true expands itself。
It rests therein察as wild beast in his lair
When it attains it察and it can attain it
If not察then each desire would frustrate be。
Therefore springs up察in fashion of a shoot
Doubt at the foot of truth察and this is nature
Which to the top from height to height impels us。
This doth invite me察this assurance give me
With reverence察Lady察to inquire of you
Another truth察which is obscure to me。
I wish to know if man can satisfy you
For broken vows with other good deeds察so
That in your balance they will not be light。;
Beatrice gazed upon me with her eyes
Full of the sparks of love察and so divine
That察overcome my power察I turned my back
And almost lost myself with eyes downcast。
Paradiso此Canto V
;If in the heat of love I flame upon thee
Beyond the measure that on earth is seen
So that the valour of thine eyes I vanquish
Marvel thou not thereat察for this proceeds
From perfect sight察which as it apprehends
To the good apprehended moves its feet。
Well I perceive how is already shining
Into thine intellect the eternal light
That only seen enkindles always love
And if some other thing your love seduce
'Tis nothing but a vestige of the same
Ill understood察which there is shining through。
Thou fain wouldst know if with another service
For broken vow can such return be made
As to secure the soul from further claim。;
This Canto thus did Beatrice begin
And察as a man who breaks not off his speech
Continued thus her holy argument
;The greatest gift that in his largess God
Creating made察and unto his own goodness
Nearest conformed察and that which he doth prize
Most highly察is the freedom of the will
Wherewith the creatures of intelligence
Both all and only were and are endowed。
Now wilt thou see察if thence thou reasonest
The high worth of a vow察if it he made
So that when thou consentest God consents
For察closing between God and man the compact
A sacrifice is of this treasure made
Such as I say察and made by its own act。
What can be rendered then as compensation
Think'st thou to make good use of what thou'st offered
With gains ill gotten thou wouldst do good deed。
Now art thou certain of the greater point
But because Holy Church in this dispenses
Which seems against the truth which I have shown thee
Behoves thee still to sit awhile at table
Because the solid food which thou hast taken
Requireth further aid for thy digestion。
Open thy mind to that which I reveal
And fix it there within察for 'tis not knowledge
The having heard without retaining it。
In the essence of this sacrifice two things
Convene together察and the one is that
Of which 'tis made察the other is the agreement。
This last for evermore is cancelled not
Unless complied with察and concerning this
With such precision has above been spoken。
Therefore it was enjoined upon the Hebrews
To offer still察though sometimes what was offered
Might be commuted察as thou
