MDCCCCV
Fertile costa d'alto monte pende,
Onde Perugia sente freddo e caldo
Da Porta Sole, ...
Di quella costa là, dov'ella frange
Più sua rattezza, nacque al mondo un Sole,
Come fa questo tal volta di Gange.
Però chi d'esso loco fa parole,
Non dica Ascesi, chè direbbe corto,
Ma Oriente, se proprio dir vuole.
Non era ancor molto lontan dall'orto,
Chè cominciò a far sentir la terra
Della sua gran virtude alcun conforto.
"Del Paradiso," Canto XI.
