112 'Master,' I began, 'those that I see
113 moving toward us do not look like people--
114 whatever they may be, I cannot make them out.'
115 And he answered: 'The grave nature
116 of their torment contorts their bodies to a crouch,
117 so that at first my eyes were undecided.
118 'But look closer, disentangle
119 the figures bent beneath them from the stones.
120 Then you can see how each one beats his breast.'
