    “Repeat thy song, till the familiar lines
    Are footpaths for the thought of Italy!
    Thy flame is blown abroad from all the heights,
    Through all the nations, and a sound is heard,
    As of a mighty wind, and men devout,
    Strangers of Rome, and the new proselytes,
    In their own language hear thy wondrous word,
    And many are amazed and many doubt.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
