quando 'l contrario segnerà un emme. 129 while an M will mark the other traits in him.
 
    Vedrassi l'avarizia e la viltate 130 'Of him who rules the isle of fire,
 
di quei che guarda l'isola del foco, 131 where the long life of Anchises had its end,
 
ove Anchise finì la lunga etate; 132 the text will show the greed and cowardice.
 
    e a dare ad intender quanto è poco, 133 'Displayed will be his utter worthlessness,
 
la sua scrittura fian lettere mozze, 134 requiring the use of shorthand
 
che noteranno molto in parvo loco. 135 that will note much in little space.
 
    E parranno a ciascun l'opere sozze 136 'Displayed for all to see will be the wicked deeds

più malmenare! e beata Navarra, 143 herself be poorly led! Happy Navarre, if she but takes
 
se s'armasse del monte che la fascia! 144 protection from the mountains that surround her!
 
    E creder de' ciascun che già, per arra 145 'And, in proof of this, all men should know
 
di questo, Niccosïa e Famagosta 146 that Nicosia and Famagosta
 
per la lor bestia si lamenti e garra, 147 lament and complain of their own beast,
 
che dal fianco de l'altre non si scosta." 148 who takes his place among the others.'
