    Da questa tema a ciò che tu ti solve, 49 'To free you from this fear
 
dirotti perch' io venni e quel ch'io 'ntesi 50 I'll tell you why I came and what I heard
 
nel primo punto che di te mi dolve. 51 when first I felt compassion for you.
 
    Io era tra color che son sospesi, 52 'I was among the ones who are suspended
 
e donna mi chiamò beata e bella, 53 when a lady called me, so blessèd and so fair
 
tal che di comandare io la richiesi. 54 that I implored her to command me.
