Canto XVI

And Francis of Accorso; and thou hadst seen there, 218 If thou hadst had a hankering for such scurf, That one, who by the Servant of the Servants From Arno was transferred to Bacchiglione, 219 Where he has left his sin-excited nerves. More would I say, but coming and discoursing Can be no longer; for that I behold New smoke uprising yonder from the sand. A people comes with whom I may not be; Commended unto thee be my Tesoro, 220 In which I still live, and no more I ask.” Then he turned round, and seemed to be of those Who at Verona run for the Green Mantle 221 Across the plain; and seemed to be among them The one who wins, and not the one who loses.

Guidoguerra, Aldobrandi, and Rusticucci⁠—Cataract of the river of blood.
