Inferno 5.94–96

Francesca to Dante during a pause in the whirlwind

Di quel che udire e che parlar vi piace,

noi udiremo e parleremo a voi,

mentre che ’l vento, come fa, ci tace.

What it pleases you to hear and speak of,

we will hear and speak with you,

while the wind, as it does now, is silent for us.
