A CHAOS OF HATREDS

1 min read · Chapter 39 of 79
Omai convien che tu così ti spoltre,

Disse il maestro; chè seggendo in piuma

In fama non si vien, nè sotto coltre.

Dante, Inf. xxiv.46-48.

'Now needs thy best of man' -- so spake my guide --

'For not on downy plumes, nor under shade

Of canopy reposing, heaven is won.'
