    Diverse lingue, orribili favelle, 25 Unfamiliar tongues, horrendous accents,
 
parole di dolore, accenti d'ira, 26 words of suffering, cries of rage, voices
 
voci alte e fioche, e suon di man con elle 27 loud and faint, the sound of slapping hands --
 
    facevano un tumulto, il qual s'aggira 28 all these made a tumult, always whirling
 
sempre in quell' aura sanza tempo tinta, 29 in that black and timeless air,
 
come la rena quando turbo spira. 30 as sand is swirled in a whirlwind.
 
    E io ch'avea d'error la testa cinta, 31 And I, my head encircled by error, said:
 
dissi: "Maestro, che è quel ch'i' odo? 32 'Master, what is this I hear, and what people
 
e che gent' è che par nel duol sì vinta?" 33 are these so overcome by pain?'
