Notes |
Canto VII, lines 112-114: English: "They smote each other not alone with hands,/But with the head and with the breast and feet,/Tearing each other piecemeal with their teeth" Français : Ils se frappaient, non pas seulement avec la main, mais avec la tête, avec la poitrine et les pieds, et en lambeaux se déchiraient avec les dents. Italiano: Queste si percotean non pur con mano,/ma con la testa e col petto e coi piedi,/troncandosi co’ denti a brano a brano Русский: Они бьют друг друга не только руками,/но и головой, грудью и ногами,/разрывая друг друга зубами на части
