...s'essere in carità è qui necesse,
e se la sua natura ben rimiri.

Anzi è formale ad esto beato esse
tenersi dentro a la divina voglia,
per ch'una fansi nostre voglie stesse;

...to live in love is essential to our being,
if you think carefully on love's nature.

The essence of this blessed life consists
in keeping to the boundaries of God's will,
by which our wills become as one will;

At the core of being is self-giving
In healing the other
We are ourselves healed

In each loving act
A fractured world
is recalled to wholeness
