In Relation to Langdon

• Dante’s presence as a narrator is more visibly present; ex: stating “with the words I give”
• Calling out “Miserere mei” instead of “have mercy on me”
• Petals on the side of those who have come after Christ are described to be mature
• Specifies that despite spending two years in hell, St. John has always been holy
• Reference to Limbo as the destination for those who are not properly baptized
• “Hail Mary” is written in English
• Adam is clearly identified
• Lucia is written as “Lucy”
• The wording of “a backward fall” makes this seem more dangerous than simply “receding”
