As to a lucid body a ray of light,

And so much giveth as it finds of heat.

Broad as the flame of charity may burn,

The eternal flame above it grows more great:

And more their number is who heavenward yearn.

More for his love there are, and they love more,

Like mirrors that each other’s light return.

Now, if thou hunger still, despite my lore,

Thou shalt see Beatris, and sure, she will

Give unto this and every wish repose;
