THE SISTINE CHAPEL

“GENESIS”

“THE LAST JUDGMENT”

DANTEWhat should be said of him cannot be said; By too great splendor is his name attended;

To blame is easier than those who him offended,

Than reach the faintest glory round him shed. This man descended to the doomed and dead

For our instruction; then to God ascended; Heaven opened wide to him its portals

splendid, Who from his country's, closed against him,

fled. Ungrateful land! To its own prejudice

Nurse of his fortunes; and this showeth well That the most perfect most of grief shall see.

Among a thousand proofs let one suffice, That as his exile hath no parallel,

Ne'er walked the earth a greater man than he.
