Poet of Hell and Heaven

Mostrasi sì piacente a chi la mira, Che dà per li occhi una dolcezza al core, Che ‘ntender no la può chi no la prova; E par che de la sua labia si mova Un spirit soave pien d’amore, Che va dicendo a l’anima; “Sospira.”

So gentle and so virtuous she appears, My lady, when greeting other people That every tongue tremblingly grows silent, And eyes do not dare gaze upon her, She passes by, hearing herself praised, Graciously clothed with humility, And she appears to be a creature who has come From heaven to earth to show forth a miracle.

She shows herself so pleasing to her beholders, That she gives through the eyes a sweetness to the heart, Which no one can understand who does not feel it; And it appears that from her lip moves A tender spirit full of love, Which says again and again to the soul: “Sigh”

He loves the numerology and he has an attachment to the number 3 and the 9 numbers of divine nature and he uses them for his compositions!

He says he met Beatrice when he was 9 years old.

His second meeting with her was when he was 18 years old.

He invented la  terza rima, the rhyme he uses in La Commedia consist on stanzas of 3 verses rhymed this way ABA, BCB, CDC…blahblahblah

La Commedia has 100 chants and you’re going to say, hold your tits that’s not a number related with the fucking 3 or 9 numbers!! He has an introductory  chant to hell, and hell had 33 chants, the same for Paradico and Purgatorio.

There are lots of trinities mentioned inside La Commedia, God -father son and holy spirit-, Lucifer -the father son and holy spirit anti-thesis-, Dante -father[Virgilio], Son [himself], Holy Spirit [Beatrice]- The bests that he finds in the “Selva Oscura”

He puts 9 circles into the inferno

Paradiso owns 9 levels

For him human beings had was composed by 3 natures divine, animal and vegetable nature [yes and you’re a potato!! *ahem*]
