Dante Alighieri
Through me the way into the suffering city, Through me the way to the eternal pain, Through me the way that runs among the lost.

Abandon every hope, ye who enter here.

I am the way into the city of woe.
I am the way to a forsaken people.
I am the way into eternal sorrow.

Primordial love and ultimate intellect.
Only those elements time cannot wear
Were made before me, and beyond time I stand.
Abandon all hope ye who enter here.
