The Sonnets Of Tommaso Campanella - On The Sepulchre Of Christ. No. 2.
by Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475–1564)
Quinci impara a stupirti. Here bend in boundless wonder; bow your head: Think how God's deathless Mind, that men might be Robed in celestial immortality (O Love divine!), in flesh was raimented: How He was killed and buried; from the dead How He arose to life with victory, And reigned in heaven; how all of us shall be Glorious like Him whose hearts to His are wed: How they who die for love of reason, give Hypocrites, tyrants, sophists—all who sell Their neighbours ill for holiness—to hell: How the dead saint condemns the bad who live; How all he does becomes a law for men; How he at last to judge shall come again!
