"For a long time they will keep their heads raised high,
holding the others down with crushing weight,
no matter how these weep or squirm for shame.           72

Two just men there are, but no one listens,
for pride, envy, avarice are the three sparks
that kindle in men`s hearts and set them burning."          75

With this mournful words came to an end.
But I spoke back: "There's more I want to know;
I beg you to provide me with more facts:                      78

Farinata and Tegghiaio, who were so worthy,
Jacopo Rusticucci, Arrigo, Mosca,
and all the rest so bent on doing good,                          81

where are they? Tell me what's become of them;
one great desire tortures me: to know
whether they taste Heaven's sweetness or Hell's gall."   84 

"They lie below with blacker souls," he said,
"by different sins pushed down to different depths;
if you keep going you may see them all."                       87

They were so many, talking simultaneously, non-stop accusations, pointing fingers... 
I shouted "shut up", and woke myself up with my sleeping voice in the darkness.

Dreamed of Freud being devoured by hell's spirits after a motivational speech.
(...)
No, it was in the middle of it.
