Original text and translations

Italian text Et per vertú de l'amorosa speme, che ti sostenne ne la vita acerba, di queste impressïon l'aere disgombra; sí vedrem poi per meraviglia inseme seder la donna nostra sopra l'erba, et far de le sue braccia a se stessa ombra.

English translation And by the power of that amorous hope that sustained you, though life was bitter, disburden the air of this dark weather: so we may see by a miracle together our lady seated on the grass lifting her arms to make herself a shade. by A. S. Kline
