    Onde, poniam che di necessitate 70 'Let us posit as a given: every love
 
surga ogne amor che dentro a voi s'accende, 71 that's kindled in you arises necessarily.
 
di ritenerlo è in voi la podestate. 72 Still, the power to constrain it lies with you.
 
    La nobile virtù Beatrice intende 73 'That noble power is called free will by Beatrice,
 
per lo libero arbitrio, e però guarda 74 and so make sure that you remember this
 
che l'abbi a mente, s'a parlar ten prende." 75 if she should ever speak of it to you.'
