Paradiso, Song 11

This tercet is one of the most breath-taking in Song 11 of Paradiso, describing the Angelical forces of Love and Wisdom – represented symbolically as Princes, for the Franciscan and Dominican Orders of the time.

“One of the two shone with Seraphic love, the other through his wisdom was on earth a splendor of Cherubic radiance.”
