    Posto avea fine al suo ragionamento 1 My lofty teacher had brought his discourse
 
l'alto dottore, e attento guardava 2 to its end and was studying my face
 
ne la mia vista s'io parea contento; 3 to see if I seemed satisfied,
 
    e io, cui nova sete ancor frugava, 4 while I, spurred on by yet another thirst,
 
di fuor tacea, e dentro dicea: "Forse 5 kept silent, rehearsing in my mind the thought:
 
lo troppo dimandar ch'io fo li grava." 6 'Perhaps I trouble him with all these questions.'
