<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gavin Richardson, post: 2807467, member: 83956&quot;]Dante references this very pine cone in Inferno 31, comparing the face of the giant Nimrod to the size of this cone. Nice to gaze upon the very object that fired Dante&#039;s imagination:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>&quot;His face appeared to me as long and large </i></p><p><i>As is at Rome the pine-cone of Saint Peter&#039;s, </i></p><p><i>And in proportion were the other bones...&quot;</i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
