No minestrone for me

In Inferno 8.52–54, Dante speaks to Virgil of Filippo Argenti, a hated enemy now among the wrathful in the fifth circle of hell, stuck in the muck of the river Styx. Here Dante exhibits righteous anger toward the damned:

E io: «Maestro, molto sarei vago
di vederlo attuffare in questa broda
prima che noi uscissimo del lago».

And Virgil approves.

Here’s Dante in the six seven translations I have at hand:

John Sinclair (prose, 1939):

And I said: “Master, I should like well to see him soused in this broth before we leave the lake.”

Dorothy L. Sayers (1949):

“Master,” said I, “I tell thee, it were good
If I might see this villain soused in the swill
Before we have passed the lake — Oh, that I
    could!”

John Ciardi (1954):

And I: “Master, it would suit my whim
    to see the wretch scrubbed down into the swill
    before we leave this stinking sink and him.”

Allen Mandelbaum (1980):

And I: “O master, I am very eager
to see that spirit soused within this broth
before we’ve made our way across the lake.”

Robert Pinsky (1994):

    And I said, “Master, truly I should like
    to see that spirit pickled in this swill,

Before we've made our way across the lake.”

Robert Hollander and Jean Hollander (2000):

And I: “Master, I would be most eager
to see him pushed deep down into the soup
before we leave the lake.”

Robin Kirkpatrick (2006):

    “Sir,“ I replied, “this I should really like:
before we make our way beyond this lake,
to see him dabbled in the minestrone.”

Stanley Lombardo (2009):

And I said: “Master, I would really like
  to see this man dipped deep in the soup
    before you and I take leave of the lake.”

Kirkpatrick’s translation appears in Circles of Hell (2015), no. 25 in the Penguin Little Black Classics series. Is it wrong to think of minestrone as a ghastly novelty?

Thanks to 30 Squares of Ontario for the Sayers. My copy is ... somewhere.
