Dante asks his own addressee to be sensitive to the little girl he is describing. The Italian poet advises Brunetto to organize a feast, not a feast, in her honor, since she does not ask for much food but requires a proper reading.

Dante recommends setting aside in his mind that understanding the little girl is no joke—there is something special about her. The Italian poet adds that it must be read in a quiet atmosphere. At the same time it must be done several times, so that the meaning from what has been done reaches the mind.

Otherwise people like Brother Alberto will sort out the situation. They are capable of making sense of whatever is in their hand. If, however, Messer Brunetto, according to Dante, cannot accomplish what he has planned even with the help of the aforementioned men, then he should turn to Messer Giano for help, for he will certainly not let him down.
