			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">About suffering they were never wrong,<br />The Old Masters: how well they understood<br />Its human position; how it takes place<br />While someone else in eating or opening a window or just walking dully along;<br />How, when the aged are reverently, passionately waiting<br />For the miraculous birth, there always must be<br />Children who did not specially want it to happen, skating<br />On a pond at the edge of the wood:<br />They never forgot<br />That even the dreadful martyrdom must run its course<br />Anyhow in a corner, some untidy spot<br />Where the dogs go on with their doggy life and the torturer&#39;s horse<br />Scratches its innocent behind on a tree.</p>
<p align="justify">In Bueghel&#39;s <em>Icarus</em>, for istance: how everything turns away<br />Quite leisurely from the disaster; the ploughman may<br />Have heard the splash, the forsaken cry,<br />But for him it was not an important failure; the sun shone<br />As it had to on the white legs disappearing into the green<br />Water; And the expensive delicate ship that must have seen<br />Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky,<br />Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.</p>
<p align="justify"><img src="http://www.floridoesercizio.it/wp-content/uploads/Icaro.jpg" border="0" alt="Brueghel-Icaro" title="Brueghel-Icaro" width="487" height="301" /></p>
<p align="justify">Quanto a sofferenza non si sbagliavano mai,<br />I Vecchi Maestri: come capivano bene<br />La sua posizione umana; come accada<br />Mentre qualcun altro mangia o apre una finestra o cammina ignaro per la sua strada;<br />Come, quando i vecchi attendono reverenti, ansiosi,<br />La nascita miracolosa, ci debbano sempre essere <br />Bambini, che non vedevano in essa niente di straordinario, a pattinare<br />Sul laghetto presso il limitare del bosco:<br />Non dimenticavano mai<br />Che perfino il tremendo martirio deve compiere il suo corso<br />Come che sia, in un angolo, in qualche sordido luogo,<br />Dove i cani trascinano la loro vita da cani, e il cavallo del torturatore<br />Si gratta l&#39;innocente deretano contro un albero.</p>
<p align="justify">Nell&#39;<em>Icaro</em> di Brueghel, per esempio: come ogni cosa volge le spalle<br />Con assoluta indifferenza al disastro; forse l&#39;aratore<br />Ha udito il tonfo, il grido solitario,<br />Ma per lui non fu una catastrofe importante; il sole splendeva,<br />Come su ogni cosa, sulle gambe bianche che sparivano nell&#39;acqua<br />Verde; e la nave costosa e sottile, che doveva pure aver visto<br />Qualche cosa di prodigioso, un giovinetto cadere dal cielo,<br />Aveva un porto da raggiungere, e continu&ograve; calma la sua rotta.</p>
