Imitation from Dante's Admired Inscription over the Gates of Hell
Mine to the doleful city's curs'd abode,
Mine to immortal anguish is the road;
Mine , to the guilty race for ever lost,
For ever in the raging billows tost.
Me Justice made; and before me were none
But those with whom Eternity begun:
Myself to last for ever. — Entering there ,
Be hopeless! 'tis the portal of Despair .
Mine to immortal anguish is the road;
Mine , to the guilty race for ever lost,
For ever in the raging billows tost.
Me Justice made; and before me were none
But those with whom Eternity begun:
Myself to last for ever. — Entering there ,
Be hopeless! 'tis the portal of Despair .
