     Era uno granne carmino, dico, de macellari.
     Et de piczecaroli, et delli tabernari.
     Et de ferrari ancora, et delli causulari;
     Contarese non porrìa quanti pagaro denari.

     It was a big walk, I say, of buthcers,
     And of grocers, and of innkeepers.
     And also of ironsmiths, and of shoemakers;
     One couldn't count how much money they paid.
