Deino (Apr 15, 2006)

�O lady, you in whom my hope gains strength, you who, for my salvation, have allowed your footsteps to be left in Hell, in all the things that I have seen, I recognize the grace and benefit that I, depending upon your power and goodness, have received. You drew me out from slavery to freedom by all those paths, by all those means that were within your power. Do, in me, preserve your generosity, so that my soul, which you have healed, when it is set loose from my body, be a soul that you will welcome.�

-Dante, thanking Beatrice for saving him.
Canto XXXI, Paradiso

EDIT: I'm planning to make this one in watercolors. :) Je, the result was better than I expected.

That's a sweet design, dude.

Sweetcell (Apr 16, 2006)

You finished yaaa.

Don't get that last part but the piece is wonderful.

Opium (Apr 17, 2006)

Sweetcell, you make it sound like you understand Deino most of the time. Is that possible?? hehe ;)

gerbear (Apr 17, 2006)

REally original (unless of couse it's not *L*) and well done. Can only read a lil of that ..the love the life the death..that pretty well sums things up. Excellent work.

Deino (Apr 17, 2006)

Thanks for the comments :)

Gerbear, the three first lines are form a poem of Miguel Hernandez :) I just add the fifth line, because I think it describes Dante very well.

gerbear (Apr 19, 2006)

Deino, please translate the last line and the first one! I only understood the middle three. My Spanish is spotty at best. :)

Deino (Apr 20, 2006)

Of course Gerber:

With three wounds he came;
The one of love
The one of life
The one of death.
Dante was the one who came.
