And this is clearly and expressly noted
For you in Holy Scripture�察�in those twins
Who in their mother had their anger roused。
According to the colour of the hair��
Therefore�察�with such a grace the light supreme
Consenteth that they worthily be crowned。
Without�察�then�察�any merit of their deeds��
Stationed are they in different gradations��
Differing only in their first acuteness。
'Tis true that in the early centuries��
With innocence�察�to work out their salvation
Sufficient was the faith of parents only。
After the earlier ages were completed��
Behoved it that the males by circumcision
Unto their innocent wings should virtue add��
But after that the time of grace had come
Without the baptism absolute of Christ��
Such innocence below there was retained。
Look now into the face that unto Christ
Hath most resemblance�察�for its brightness only
Is able to prepare thee to see Christ。;
On her did I behold so great a gladness
Rain down�察�borne onward in the holy minds
Created through that altitude to fly��
That whatsoever I had seen before
Did not suspend me in such admiration��
Nor show me such similitude of God。
And the same Love that first descended there��
;Ave Maria�察�gratia plena�察─�singing��
In front of her his wings expanded wide。
Unto the canticle divine responded
From every part the court beatified��
So that each sight became serener for it。
;O holy father�察�who for me endurest
To be below here�察�leaving the sweet place
In which thou sittest by eternal lot��
Who is the Angel that with so much joy
Into the eyes is looking of our Queen��
Enamoured so that he seems made of fire�拭�
Thus I again recourse had to the teaching
Of that one who delighted him in Mary
As doth the star of morning in the sun。
And he to me�此 �Such gallantry and grace
As there can be in Angel and in soul��
All is in him�察�and thus we fain would have it��
Because he is the one who bore the palm
Down unto Mary�察�when the Son of God
To take our burden on himself decreed。
But now come onward with thine eyes�察�as I
Speaking shall go�察�and note the great patricians
Of this most just and merciful of empires。
Those two that sit above there most enrapture
As being very near unto Augusta��
Are as it were the two roots of this Rose。
He who upon the left is near her placed
The father is�察�by whose audacious taste
The human species so much bitter tastes。
Upon the right thou seest that ancient father
Of Holy Church�察�into whose keeping Christ
The keys committed of this lovely flower。
And he who all the evil days beheld��
Before his death�察�of her the beauteous bride
Who with the spear and with the nails was won��
Beside him sits�察�and by the other rests
That leader under whom on manna lived
The people ingrate�察�fickle�察�and stiff´necked。
Opposite Peter seest thou Anna seated��
So well content to look upon her daughter��
Her eyes she moves not while she sings Hosanna。
And opposite the eldest household father
Lucia sits�察�she who thy Lady moved
When to rush downward thou didst bend thy brows。
But since the moments of thy vision fly��
Here will we make full stop�察�as a good tailor
Who makes the gown according to his cloth��
And unto the first Love will turn our eyes��
That looking upon Him thou penetrate
As far as possible through his effulgence。
Truly�察�lest peradventure thou recede��
Moving thy wings believing to advance��
By prayer behoves it that grace be obtained��
Grace from that one who has the power to aid thee��
And thou shalt follow me with thy affection
That from my words thy heart turn not aside。;
And he began this holy orison。
Paradiso�此�Canto XXXIII
;Thou Virgin Mother�察�daughter of thy Son��
Humble and high beyond all other creature��
The limit fixed of the eternal counsel��
Thou art the one who such nobility
To human nature gave�察�that its Creator
Did not disdain to make himself its creature。
Within thy womb rekindled was the love��
By heat of which in the eternal peace
After such wise this flower has germinated。
Here unto us thou art a noonday torch
Of charity�察�and below there among mortals
Thou art the living fountain´head of hope。
Lady�察�thou art so great�察�and so prevailing��
That he who wishes grace�察�nor runs to thee��
His aspirations without wings would fly。
Not only thy benignity gives succour
To him who asketh it�察�but oftentimes
Forerunneth of its own accord the asking。
In thee compassion is�察�in thee is pity��
In thee magnificence�察�in thee unites
Whate'er of goodness is in any creature。
Now doth this man�察�who from the lowest depth
Of the universe as far as here has seen
One after one the spiritual lives��
Supplicate thee through grace for so much power
That with his eyes he may uplift himself
Higher towards the uttermost salvation。
And I�察�who never burned for my own seeing
More than I do for his�察�all of my prayers
Proffer to thee�察�and pray they come not short��
That thou wouldst scatter from him every cloud
Of his mortality so with thy prayers��
That the Chief Pleasure be to him displayed。
Still farther do I pray thee�察�Queen�察�who canst
Whate'er thou wilt�察�that sound thou mayst preserve
After so great a vision his affections。
Let thy protection conquer human movements��
See Beatrice and all the blessed ones
My prayers to second clasp their hands to thee� �
The eyes beloved and revered of God��
Fastened upon the speaker�察�showed to us
How grateful unto her are prayers devout��
Then unto the Eternal Light they turned��
On which it is not credible could be
By any creature bent an eye so clear。
And I�察�who to the end of all desires
Was now approaching�察�even as I ought
The ardour of desire within me ended。
Bernard was beckoning unto me�察�and smiling��
That I should upward look�察�but I already
Was of my own accord such as he wished��
Because my sight�察�becoming purified��
Was entering more and more into the ray
Of the High Light which of itself is true。
From that time forward what I saw was greater
Than our discourse�察�that to such vision yields��
And yields the memory unto such excess。
Even as he is who seeth in a dream��
And after dreaming the imprinted passion
Remains�察�and to his mind the rest returns not��
Even such am I�察�for almost utterly
Ceases my vision�察�and distilleth yet
Within my heart the sweetness born of it��
Even thus the snow is in the sun unsealed��
Even thus upon the wind in the light leaves
Were the soothsayings of the Sibyl lost。
O Light Supreme�察�that dost so far uplift thee
From the conceits of mortals�察�to my mind
Of what thou didst appear re´lend a little��
And make my tongue of so great puissance��
That but a single sparkle of thy glory
It may bequeath unto the future people��
For by returning to my memory somewhat��
And by a little sounding in these verses��
More of thy victory shall be conceived��
I think the keenness of the living ray
Which I endured would have bewildered me��
If but mine eyes had been averted from it��
And I remember that I was more bold
On this account to bear�察�so that I joined
My aspect with the Glory Infinite。
O grace abundant�察�by which I presumed
To fix my sight upon the Light Eternal��
So that the seeing I consumed therein��
I saw that in its depth far down is lying
Bound up with love together in one volume��
What through the universe in leaves is scattered��
Substance�察�and accident�察�and their operations��
All interfused together in such wise
That what I speak of is one simple light。
The universal fashion of this knot
Methinks I saw�察�since more abundantly
In saying this I feel that I rejoice。
One moment is more lethargy to me��
Than five and twenty centuries to the emprise
That startled Neptune with the shade of Argo��
My mind in this wise wholly in suspense��
Steadfast�察�immovable�察�attentive gazed��
And evermore with gazing grew enkindled。
In presence of that light one such becomes��
That to withdraw therefrom for other prospect
It is impossible he e'er consent��
Because the good�察�which object is of will��
Is gathered all in this�察�and out of it
That is defective which is perfect there。
Shorter henceforward will my language fall
Of what I yet remember�察�than an infant's
Who still his tongue doth moisten at the breast。
Not because more than one unmingled semblance
Was in the living light on which I looked��
For it is always what it was before��
But through the sight�察�that fortified itself
In me by looking�察�one appearance only
To me was ever changing as I changed。
Within the deep and luminous subsistence
Of the High Light appeared to me three circles��
Of threefold colour and of one dimension��
And by the second seemed the first reflected
As Iris is by Iris�察�and the third
Seemed fire that equally from both is breathed。
O how all speech is feeble and falls short
Of my conceit�察�and this to what I saw
Is such�察�'tis not enough to call it little��
O Light Eterne�察�sole in thyself that dwellest��
Sole knowest thyself�察�and�察�known unto thyself
And knowing�察�lovest and smilest on thyself��
That circulation�察�which being thus conceived
Appeared in thee as a reflected light��
When somewhat contemplated by mine eyes��
Within itself�察�of its own very colour
Seemed to me painted with our effigy��
Wherefore my sight was all absorbed therein。
As the geometrician�察�who endeavours
To square the circle�察�and discovers not��
By taking thought�察�the principle he wants��
Even such was I at that new apparition��
I wished to see how the image to the circle
Conformed itself�察�and how it there finds place��
But my own wings were not enough for this��
Had it not been that then my mind there smote
A flash of lightning�察�wherein came its wish。
Here vigour failed the lofty fantasy��
But now was turning my desire and will��
Even as a wheel that equally is moved��
The Love which moves the sun and the other stars。
