Toward God a mighty hymn,
A song of collisions and cries,
Rumbling wheels, hoof-beats, bells,
Welcomes, farewells, love-calls, final moans,
Voices of joy, idiocy, warning, despair,
The unknown appeals of brutes,
The chanting of flowers,
The screams of cut trees,
The
senseless
babble of hens and wise men--
A cluttered incoherency that says at the
stars;
"O God, save us!

As we pass the summer stream without danger
That floods in winter, king of all the plain,
Rendering farmers' hopes and shepherds' vain,
In his proud flight, sinking fields in water:
As we see coward creatures at the slaughter
Outrage the dead lion after his brave reign,
Staining their jaws, revealing their disdain,
Daring their enemy bereft of power:
And as the least valiant Greeks at Troy
With brave Hector's corpse were wont to toy,
So those whose heads once used to bow,
When to Roman triumph they were drawn,
On dusty tombs exact their vengeance now,
The
conquered
daring the conqueror's scorn.

Of love deep learned to the red heart's core:
Not one hour old, yet of sciential brain
To unperplex bliss from its

Define their pettish limits, and estrange
Their points of contact, and swift counterchange;
Intrigue with the specious chaos, and dispart

Sweet days a lovely graduate, still unshent,
And kept his rosy terms in idle languishment.

Entellus hurled his
strength
into the air, and all his
heavy mass, overreaching, fell heavily to the earth; as sometime on
Erymanthus or mighty Ida a hollow pine falls torn out by the roots.

Canto XXV
Se mai continga che 'l poema sacro
al quale ha posto mano e cielo e terra,
si che m'ha fatto per molti anni macro,
vinca la crudelta che fuor mi serra
del bello ovile ov' io dormi' agnello,
nimico ai lupi che li danno guerra;
con altra voce omai, con altro vello
ritornero poeta, e in sul fonte
del mio battesmo
prendero
'l cappello;
pero che ne la fede, che fa conte
l'anime a Dio, quivi intra' io, e poi
Pietro per lei si mi giro la fronte.
