O senseless spirit! let thy horn for thee interpret, c1890. Creator
" O senseless spirit! let thy horn for thee interpret: therewith vent thy rage, if rage or other passion wring thee", c1890. The Old Testament figure of Nimrod, who tried to build the Tower of Babel, is portrayed as a giant whose speech is unintelligible - punishment for his confusion of languages. Illustration from " The Vision of Hell" (Inferno), the first part of " The Divine Comedy" (La divina commedia) by Dante Alighieri. This long, narrative poem, written in Italian c1308-1321, tracing Dantes imaginary journey from Hell, through Purgatory and finally to Heaven and a beatific vision of God, has been published numerous times. This edition, published late 19th century, is illustrated by Gustave Dore. [Cassell Petter & Galpin, c1890]
