Dante Alighiere, PURGATORIO, Canto XXII
Illustration by Salvador Dali
................................................
Dante, Virgil,and Statius mount to the sixth cornice, where the sin of gluttony is cleansed, the two Latin Poets discoursing by the way. Turning to the right, they find a tree hung with sweet-smelling fruit, and watered by a shower that issues from the rock. Voices are heard to proceed from among the leaves, recording examples of temperance.
