INFERNO, Canto XXVI, illustration 3

Title: "Master," I said, "your words make me more sure,
but I had seen already that it was so
and meant to ask what spirit must endure

the pains of that great flame which splits away
in two great horns, as if it rose from the pyre
where Eteocles and Polynices lay?"

He answered me: "Forever round this path
Ulysses and Diomede move in such dress
united in pain as they once were in wrath..."
