Worthy of Reverence

Dante, Convivio 4.5.20 (on Rome; tr. Richard H. Lansing):
I am most certainly of the firm opinion that the stones lodged in her walls are worthy of reverence and that the soil on which she rests is more worthy than is commonly proclaimed or established.

Certo di ferma sono oppinione che le pietre che ne le mura sue stanno siano degne di reverenzia, e lo suolo dov'ella siede sia degno oltre quello che per li uomini รจ predicato e approvato.
