Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dante, Vol. 5: The Divina Commedia and Canzoniere Purgatory For fairer waters now before the wind Her sails my spirit's little boat doth spread, Which leaves so dark and stern a sea behind; And I will sing that second realm instead, Wherein man's spirit frees itself from stain, And growth worthy Heaven's high courts to tread. Let Poesy, that was dead, rise again, O holy Muses, since that yours am I, And let Calliope lift her strain, Following my song with that sweet melody Which smote the wretched pies, and made them own All hope of pardon passed for ever by. The orient's sapphire's hue of sweetest tone, Which gathered in the aspect, calm and bright, Of that pure air as far as Heaven's first zone, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
