the fall of Troy and the flight with the household gods in Book II, and the wandering without rest in Book III.

Paradise
Dante Alighieri
ancient Florence, sober and chaste (canto XV), the city that Fortune covers and uncovers (canto XVI), the bread of others that tastes of salt (canto XVII), the imagined return to the baptismal font, as a poet, with another voice (canto XXV), and the treasure gained in the exile of Babylon (canto XXIII).
