“When comes Medusa, we shall polish him,”
They said together, on us looking down;
“For Theseus we never had revenge.”

And every casket there was opened wide.
From out of each arose such deadly cries
That come from ones pain sorrowfully tried.

For ‘midst the tombs were fires burning hard,
The which were made so incandescent-white
The blacksmith would ask nothing for his art.

Once being inside, did cast about my eye,
And saw, at every hand, the awful champaign
Most full of tears and every torment high.

Inside we entered without any quarrel,
And I, having most curious desire
To know what kind of things were there concealed

“Why recalcitrate, when ’gainst His will
“The ends may never be cut off or changed,
“But have more frequently increased your ill?

“O banished from the heavens, souls despised,”
He started then upon the threshold grim,
“Wherefore does naughty arrogance entice?”

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

Ah! How high appeared then his disdain!
He reached the gate, and with a little vise
Did open it; for nothing him restrained.

He fanned the greasy air with his left hand,
Conducting it still further from his face,
And only with that effort seemed concerned.

For now there came crossing the turbid waves
A shattering sound, so full of deadly fear,
That both the banks did tremble then and quake.

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

And he, who these unhappy ones knew there
The handmaids of eternal torture’s queen,
Then said: “Look on,” to me: “the Eumenides.”

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

Amid most pure green hydras they were clothed.
They serpents and sidewinders had for hair,
Which round their savage temples were enclosed.

Where, upon a flash, appeared just then

Infernal furies three, and stained in blood,

That members had and motions feminine.

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

And more he said, though I cannot recall it,
Because my sight entirely was drawn
Toward the tower high, whose top is scorching,

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

“And now this morass that the great stink sends
“Surrounds the city of the suffering,
“And we cannot approach without offence.”

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

Than any those that were before him then.
And so we moved toward the territory,
Secure after his speech from heaven sent.

[InfernoTweeted @InfernoTweeted]

And then he turned along the mud-stained track
Without a word to us, but seemed as one
That other painful cares more bite and rack
