Paradiso 33.142–145

Dante, at the end of his vision

A l’alta fantasia qui mancò possa;

ma già volgeva il mio disio e ’l velle,

sì come rota ch’igualmente è mossa,

l’amor che move il sole e l’altre stelle.

Here power failed the high imagination;

but already my desire and will were turned,

like a wheel evenly moved,

by the Love that moves the sun and the other stars.
