"Amor, ch’a nullo amato amar perdona,
mi prese del costui piacer sě forte,
che, come vedi, ancor non m’abbandona."

(Love, that exempts no one beloved from loving,
Seized me with pleasure of this man so strongly,
That, as thou seest, it doth not yet desert me;)

~Dante Alighieri - " La Divina Commedia" (Inferno - canto V) ~
