Come sùbito lampo che discetti
li spiriti visivi, sì che priva
da l'atto l'occhio di più forti obietti,
così mi circunfulse luce viva,
e lasciommi fasciato di tal velo
del suo fulgor, che nulla m'appariva.
Like sudden lightning scatters
the spirits of sight, so the eye is too weak
to act on what else it might see,
such was the living light encircling me,
leaving me so enveloped by its veil
of radiance I could see no thing.
Radiance blinds
so too darkness
obscures
But reality persists
seen or not
