He was educated at Rugby School and at the grammar schools of Sutton Coldfield and Birmingham , as well as at Christ Church, Oxford , which he entered in and studied French and Italian literature.

He held this benefice until his death. In he also became vicar of Kingsbury in Warwickshire. At Christ Church he studied French and Italian literature, his command of which is evidenced in his notes to his translation of Dante.
The version of the Inferno was published in together with the original text. Cary moved to London in , where he became reader at the Berkeley Chapel and subsequently, lecturer at Chiswick and curate of the Savoy Chapel.
His version of the whole Divina Commedia in blank verse appeared in Dante's description of hell is riveting. It would turn even the most ruthless, sinful man into a saint. It will draw you in and keep you reading until the very end. This book will also force you to look at your own life and decide just where you belong.

You must remember that this book was written in the 14th century, when that writing was more acceptable. The whole poem was awesome. I highly recommend this book. I have an old hard copy of Cary's translation and it really is helpful to be able to read the notes at the bottom of each page. The Divine Comedy is far from an easy read and the visible notes help greatly. So, sadly, on the Kindle Version the notes at the end are not so helpful. Well done to the volunteers who made this into digital format though.
