With him it ran even to the Red Sea shore�察 �With him it placed the
world in so great peace�察�That unto Janus was his temple closed。
But what the standard that has made me speak Achieved before�察�and
after should achieve Throughout the mortal realm that lies beneath it�察�
Becometh in appearance mean and dim�察 �If in the hand of the third
Caesar seen With eye unclouded and affection pure�察�
Because the living Justice that inspires me Granted it�察�in the hand of
him I speak of�察�The glory of doing vengeance for its wrath。
Now here attend to what I answer thee�察�Later it ran with Titus to do
vengeance Upon the vengeance of the ancient sin。
And when the tooth of Lombardy had bitten The Holy Church�察 �then
underneath its wings Did Charlemagne victorious succor her。
Now hast thou power to judge of such as those Whom I accused above�察�

and of their crimes�察�Which are the cause of all your miseries。
To the public standard one the yellow lilies Opposes�察�the other claims
it for a party�察�So that 'tis hard to see which sins the most。
Let�察 �let the Ghibellines ply their handicraft Beneath some other
standard�察�for this ever Ill follows he who it and justice parts。
And let not this new Charles e'er strike it down�察�He and his Guelfs�察�but
let him fear the talons That from a nobler lion stripped the fell。
Already oftentimes the sons have wept The father's crime�察�and let him
not believe That God will change His scutcheon for the lilies。
This little planet doth adorn itself With the good spirits that have
active been�察�That fame and honour might come after them�察�
And whensoever the desires mount thither�察 �Thus deviating�察 �must
perforce the rays Of the true love less vividly mount upward。
But in commensuration of our wages With our desert is portion of our
joy�察�Because we see them neither less nor greater。
Herein doth living Justice sweeten so Affection in us�察 �that for
evermore It cannot warp to any iniquity。
Voices diverse make up sweet melodies�察�So in this life of ours the seats
diverse Render sweet harmony among these spheres�察�
And in the compass of this present pearl Shineth the sheen of Romeo�察�
of whom The grand and beauteous work was ill rewarded。
But the Provencals who against him wrought�察�They have not laughed�察�
and therefore ill goes he Who makes his hurt of the good deeds of others。
Four daughters�察 �and each one of them a queen�察 �Had Raymond
Berenger�察�and this for him Did Romeo�察�a poor man and a pilgrim�察�
And then malicious words incited him To summon to a reckoning this
just man�察�Who rendered to him seven and five for ten。
Then he departed poor and stricken in years�察�And if the world could
know the heart he had�察�In begging bit by bit his livelihood�察�
Though much it laud him�察�it would laud him more。;

Paradiso�此�Canto VII
;Osanna sanctus Deus Sabaoth�察 �Superillustrans claritate tua Felices
ignes horum malahoth� ─�
In this wise�察 �to his melody returning�察 �This substance�察 �upon which a
double light Doubles itself�察�was seen by me to sing�察�
And to their dance this and the others moved�察�And in the manner of
swift´hurrying sparks Veiled themselves from me with a sudden distance。
Doubting was I�察�and saying�察 �Tell her�察�tell her�察─�Within me�察 �tell her�察─�
saying�察 �tell my Lady�察─�Who slakes my thirst with her sweet effluences�察�
And yet that reverence which doth lord it over The whole of me only
by B and ICE�察�Bowed me again like unto one who drowses。
Short while did Beatrice endure me thus�察�And she began�察�lighting me
with a smile Such as would make one happy in the fire�此�
;According to infallible advisement�察 �After what manner a just
vengeance justly Could be avenged has put thee upon thinking�察�
But I will speedily thy mind unloose�察�And do thou listen�察 �for these
words of mine Of a great doctrine will a present make thee。
By not enduring on the power that wills Curb for his good�察�that man
who ne'er was born�察�Damning himself damned all his progeny�察�
Whereby the human species down below Lay sick for many centuries
in great error�察�Till to descend it pleased the Word of God
To where the nature�察 �which from its own Maker Estranged itself�察 �he
joined to him in person By the sole act of his eternal love。
Now unto what is said direct thy sight�察�This nature when united to its
Maker�察�Such as created�察�was sincere and good�察�
But by itself alone was banished forth From Paradise�察 �because it
turned aside Out of the way of truth and of its life。
Therefore the penalty the cross held out�察 �If measured by the nature
thus assumed�察�None ever yet with so great justice stung�察�
And none was ever of so great injustice�察�Considering who the Person
was that suffered�察�Within whom such a nature was contracted。
From one act therefore issued things diverse�察�To God and to the Jews
one death was pleasing�察�Earth trembled at it and the Heaven was opened。

It should no longer now seem difficult To thee�察�when it is said that a
just vengeance By a just court was afterward avenged。
But now do I behold thy mind entangled From thought to thought
within a knot�察�from which With great desire it waits to free itself。
Thou sayest�察�'Well discern I what I hear�察�But it is hidden from me why
God willed For our redemption only this one mode。'
Buried remaineth�察 �brother�察 �this decree Unto the eyes of every one
whose nature Is in the flame of love not yet adult。
Verily�察�inasmuch as at this mark One gazes long and little is discerned�察�
Wherefore this mode was worthiest will I say。
Goodness Divine�察 �which from itself doth spurn All envy�察 �burning in
itself so sparkles That the eternal beauties it unfolds。
Whate'er from this immediately distils Has afterwards no end�察�for ne'er
removed Is its impression when it sets its seal。
Whate'er from this immediately rains down Is wholly free�察�because it
is not subject Unto the influences of novel things。
The more conformed thereto�察�the more it pleases�察�For the blest ardour
that irradiates all things In that most like itself is most vivacious。
With all of these things has advantaged been The human creature�察�and
if one be wanting�察�From his nobility he needs must fall。
'Tis sin alone which doth disfranchise him�察�And render him unlike the
Good Supreme�察�So that he little with its light is blanched�察�
And to his dignity no more returns�察 �Unless he fill up where
transgression empties With righteous pains for criminal delights。
Your nature when it sinned so utterly In its own seed�察 �out of these
dignities Even as out of Paradise was driven�察�
Nor could itself recover�察�if thou notest With nicest subtilty�察�by any way�察�
Except by passing one of these two fords�此�
Either that God through clemency alone Had pardon granted�察�or that
man himself Had satisfaction for his folly made。
Fix now thine eye deep into the abyss Of the eternal counsel�察�to my
speech As far as may be fastened steadfastly� �
Man in his limitations had not power To satisfy�察�not having power to
sink In his humility obeying then�察�

Far as he disobeying thought to rise�察�And for this reason man has been
from power Of satisfying by himself excluded。
Therefore it God behoved in his own ways Man to restore unto his
perfect life�察�I say in one�察�or else in both of them。
But since the action of the doer is So much more grateful�察�as it more
presents The goodness of the heart from which it issues�察�
Goodness Divine�察�that doth imprint the world�察�Has been contented to
proceed by each And all its ways to lift you up again�察�
Nor 'twixt the first day and the final night Such high and such
magnificent proceeding By one or by the other was or shall be�察�
For God more bounteous was himself to give To make man able to
uplift himself�察�Than if he only of himself had pardoned�察�
And all the other modes were insufficient For justice�察�were it not the
Son of God Himself had humbled to become incarnate。
Now�察�to fill fully each desire of thine�察�Return I to elucidate one place�察�
In order that thou there mayst see as I do。
Thou sayst�此�'I see the air�察�I see the fire�察�The water�察�and the earth�察�and all
their mixtures Come to corruption�察�and short while endure�察�
And these things notwithstanding were created��' Therefore if that
which I have said were true�察 �They should have been secure against
corruption。
The Angels�察 �brother�察 �and the land sincere In which thou art�察 �created
may be called Just as they are in their entire existence�察�
But all the elements which thou hast named�察 �And all those things
which out of them are made�察�By a created virtue are informed。
Created was th
