Well I've certainly humbled you haven't I A**c? Remember that party you'd invited me to? Do you remember the sleepover? Do you remember that whole time where I watched Naruto, you all the while thinking you had me so fooled.

Then I brought you low.

I took your Naruto joke and used it against you. I took everything. Everything I could I would take from you and I'd do it again for what you did. My own blood, for who? Some unstable bitch and her money. Was it worth it?

Mandelbaum and Ciardi are the recommended ones here.

Damn, that pic. I used to behave like this until not so long ago. My god, it's even more pathetic written out like this. I am sure glad I'm over my Nietzsche phase

I am no expert, but Mandelbaum is very readable and beautifully conveys the poem's many shades of emotion and dramatic incident and character (i.e., the many characters Dante meets on his journey).

thanks lads, I'll follow these recs.
