    La luna, quasi a mezza notte tarda, 76 Still brilliant after midnight, the moon,
 
facea le stelle a noi parer piĆ¹ rade, 77 like a fiery bucket, was shining,
 
fatta com' un secchion che tuttor arda; 78 making the stars seem fewer than they were,
 
    e correa contra 'l ciel per quelle strade 79 as in its course against the sky it followed
 
che 'l sole infiamma allor che quel da Roma 80 the tracks the sun inflames when seen from Rome,
 
tra ' Sardi e ' Corsi il vede quando cade. 81 setting between Sardegna and the Corsicans.
