Sortie

"Through me the way is to the city dolent;
Trough me the way is to eternal dole;
Trough me the way among the people lost.

Justice incited my sublime Creator;
Created me divine Omnipotence,
The highest Wisdom and the primal Love.

Before me there were no created things,
Only eterne, and I eternal last.
All hope abandon, ye who enter in!"
