    Questi la caccerà per ogne villa, 109 'He shall hunt the beast through every town
 
fin che l'avrà rimessa ne lo 'nferno, 110 till he has sent her back to Hell
 
là onde 'nvidia prima dipartilla. 111 whence primal envy set her loose.
 
    Ond' io per lo tuo me' penso e discerno 112 'Therefore, for your sake, I think it wise
 
che tu mi segui, e io sarò tua guida, 113 you follow me: I will be your guide,
 
e trarrotti di qui per loco etterno; 114 leading you, from here, through an eternal place
 
    ove udirai le disperate strida, 115 'where you shall hear despairing cries
 
vedrai li antichi spiriti dolenti, 116 and see those ancient souls in pain
 
ch'a la seconda morte ciascun grida; 117 as they bewail their second death.
 
    e vederai color che son contenti 118 'Then you shall see the ones who are content
 
nel foco, perché speran di venire 119 to burn because they hope to come,
 
quando che sia a le beate genti. 120 whenever it may be, among the blessed.
 
    A le quai poi se tu vorrai salire, 121 'Should you desire to ascend to these,
 
anima fia a ciò più di me degna: 122 you'll find a soul more fit to lead than I:
 
con lei ti lascerò nel mio partire; 123 I'll leave you in her care when I depart.
