I hope you're ready for the climb. We've come through the gate of PURGATORY to find ourselves on the first terrace of those actually getting rid of their sins.

In this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE, we'll read through my rough--very rough--English translation of PURGATORIO, Cantos X - XII, to give us all a chance to see the landscape, understand the arc of the story, and see some of the difficulties that lie ahead.

Sit back and enjoy the plot of the first terrace of Purgatory proper.

Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:

[01:07] A plot summary of PURGATORIO so far, just so we're all up to speed.

[06:31] A read-through of my rough English translation of PURGATORIO, Cantos X - XII.
