Paradise 8/8

As in the sunshine, that unsullied streams
Through fractured cloud, ere now a meadow of flowers
Mine eyes with shadow covered o'er have seen,

So troops of splendours manifold I saw
Illumined from above with burning rays,
Beholding not the source of the effulgence.

  1. Nice choices on these. But I checked Wikipedia, and Dante's Paradise had 9 levels, not 8.

  2. One part brave, three parts fool.
