Carry the criminal to his crime's award:

A mob to cleave, a scaffolding to reach,

Two gallows and Mannaia crowning all.

How Guido made defence a second time.

Finally, even as thus by step and step

I led you from the level of to-day

Up to the summit of so long ago,

Here, whence I point you the wide prospect round—

Let me, by like steps, slope you back to smooth,

Land you on mother-earth, no whit the worse,
