20 “What then I saw is more than tongue can say. Our human speech is dark before the vision. The ravished memory swoons and falls away. As one who sees in dreams and wakes to find the emotional impression of his vision still powerful while its parts fade from his mind – just such am I, having lost nearly all the vision itself, while in my heart I feel the sweetness of it yet distilled and fall.” - Dante, Paradiso Canto XXXIII
