      et duolmi ch’ogni giorno arroge al danno
      I never put an end to my lasting trouble: and grieve that every day adds to my harm
    • 14th c., Jacopo Passavanti, “Distinzione seconda, Capitolo V”, in Specchio di vera penitenza‎, Florence: Felice Le Monnier, published 1823, page 27:
      ancora tagliava delle legne e arrogeva al fascio, donde ne dovea iscemare se portare lo volea. E pure accrescendo del peso, e ponendosi addosso, vi cadea sotto. E disse la voce: Questi sono coloro che arrogendo peccati a peccati vivendo, vi periscono sotto.
      He still cut wood and added to the faggot, whence he was to take out, if he wanted to carry it. And with the increased weight, he took it upon himself, and fell under it. And the voice said "These are the ones who, adding sins to sins in life, perish under them."
