Description

Dante Alighieri Hell (Inferno) CANTO XXV And just back from the nape, lying supine Over the shoulders, a dragon with wings outspread Breathed fire on anyone who crossed his line 25 Of sight. "That Centaur is Cacus," my master said, "Who often turned a cave beneath the stone Of Mount Avertine into a lake of bloody red. 28 He doesn't travel with his brothers but goes alone; This is because of the cunning, thieving deceit He used to make his neighbor's great herd his own. inferno xxv 31 His crooked tricks were over by the tenth beat Of Hercules' club, whose total perhaps surpassed One hundred by the time the job was complete." 34 While he was speaking the Centaur galloped past; Then three shades arrived quietly below Our lookout, so we didn't see them until at last 37 They cried out: "Who are you?" And to bestow Sufficient attention on them we had to place My master's story on hold. I didn't know inferno xxv 40 Any of these spirits, but as is often the case I could pick out a name from their conversation. "Where did Cianfa go?" asked one. "I've lost trace * 43 Of him." Hearing this, I gave an indication To my guide to be silent, pressing my first digit To my lips from chin to nose. Reader, if this narration 46 Becomes too far
