Never I could, even with my more beautiful rhymes, express in a perfect way, the blood 
and the wounds that I saw. Never a damned one was so perforated, like a barrel that lost its bars 
and its ditches; he was split from the chin to the hole where one fart, his bowels hung on his legs, 
one saw his lungs and the satchel where transforms itself into shit, all that one eats. 

While I applied myself to seeing him well, he looked at me and he opens his chest whith his hands 
then he says to me: 
"Why you look at me that way, who goes along crying, because I am limping and split up, my face cut 
from the chin to the cheeck. All the others, whom you see here such as I am, were, when alive, 
sowers of discord. It is for that that they all are, like me, and that a devil is behind them, 
which makes pass each one of our species, to the slice of his sword 
and arranges them cruelly like such, whereas he splits them into two." 

And ithe continued as follows: 
"But you who is idle on this bridge, who are you, perhaps you think you will delay
 the moment to go to your punishment which is appropriate for that for which you were accused?" 

My Master answered to him: 
"He did not die and he did commit no faut which destined himt to the torments of  Hell, 
but me who is dead, I must guide him from circle to circle in Hell, 
to give him full experiment of it; and that, believe me, is as true as I speak to you." 

To these words, hundred of spirits and more, stopped in the ditch and looked at me, astonished,
 forgetting for one moment their sufferings: 
"Oh, you that no fault condemns and whom I saw up there on the nordic land; if 
a too great resemblance does not mislead me, remember me, if ever you go back
to see the soft plain that runs from Contrecoeur to Noyan, and let know to the friend  I left over  there, 
that if my reading of the stars does not mislead me, he will be calumniated to have abused of his daughter 
and imprisoned, a stone on his neck, in Bordeaux, by the erroneous charge of his felonious wife: 
this traitress who sees only with one eye, and who holds makes this assembly, and 
make it believe what she wants and only what she wants to hear, and which will act so that 
from the wind of calumny will not preserve him,  neither wishes neither prayers nor absence of evidence!" 

I answered to him: 
"Show me that one, so that I recognize her well, who has subjugated this assembly 
and her daughter if you want that I restore the truth up there." 

Then, he approached towards one of his partners, carried his hand ton her jaw,
 and he opens her mouth  while shouting: 
"Here she is, and she does  not speak any more." 

Oh! how she appeared terrified, her tongue cut in the throat, 
this Viper which had been so bold to calumniate! 

And one damned, who had his two hands sliced, raising his stubs in the dark air, 
so that blood soiled his face, shouted: 
"Remember Me also, who wanted to divorce and flee with the child of his blood; 
who subjugated the lawyer to believe me and not to believe the husband 
and did such that the Judge denies the father the right of paternity." 

I retorted:
 "And the death of your sex! 
The reason why, accumulating pain on pain, he avenged himself as a man whose treason turns insane, 
of having been  prevented of the happiness of being the father of his daughter." 

But I remained  looking at the troop, and I saw asomething who cannot be told without proof, 
if I was not reassured by my conscience which gives me courage; I saw, and I believe
Istill see it, a body delested from his head, walk such as walked the others which formed a herd; 
he held his cut head by the hair, it was suspended to his hands like one makes 
of a lantern and the head looked at us and said:
 "Poor of me!" 

He made of its own head like a torch, he was one and at the same time 
he formed two separate beings; how can we explain that, only The One who ordered that could. 

As soon as he was at the foot of the bridge, he raised his head at the end of his arm 
to bring it closer to us, so that we hear his words and he says:
 "You who visits the deaths like this, see how my sorrow is cruel and that 
there is none more atrocious, then give some news of myself to those who remained. 
Know that I am the Legislator, the one who edict the laws to appear Liberal 
and, by the perfidious councils of the Gorgone, I put face to face, the husband and the wife;
 I did so that, there had been no more women who believe nor men who hope. 

Medea did make nothing more, to draw up one against the other, the father and the doughter
 by her perverse magics. To have separated human beings so unite, I carry my brain
separate from its principle which is in this trunk; thus can be observed in me, the law of retaliation."
