"And one his limb transpierced, and one lopped off, ⁠Should show, it would be nothing to compare ⁠With the disgusting mode of the ninth Bolgia. A cask by losing centre-piece or cant ⁠Was never shattered so, as I saw one ⁠Rent from the chin to where one breaketh wind. Between his legs were hanging down his entrails; ⁠His heart was visible, and the dismal sack ⁠That maketh excrement of what is eaten. While I was all absorbed in seeing him, ⁠He looked at me, and opened with his hands ⁠His bosom, saying: "See now how I rend me; How mutilated, see, is Mahomet; ⁠In front of me doth Ali weeping go, ⁠Cleft in the face from forelock unto chin; And all the others whom thou here beholdest, ⁠Disseminators of scandal and of schism ⁠While living were, and therefore are cleft thus."
