From this point on are punished the sins committed with malizia, which means with an intention to harm people with violence or deception. The devils in this area are very ferocious and frightening.
Malebolge is the kingdom of darkness, and for Dante it is not easy to enter this circle: the poet is terrified by the legions of demons that appear in front of him and try to block the entrance.
The words of the poet Virgil, his guide, will not be enough: they will need divine intervention to overcome the devils.
As mentioned above, the eighth circle of Hell is divided into ten bolge, each dedicated to a different kind of guilt.
Bolgia means ditch, from the shape of the infernal pit cave that contains the damned.
Here you find the division of the damned in Malebolge and their punishment according to the rule of retaliation:
Ditch 1: Panderers and Seducers: they are whipped by devils.
Ditch 2: Sinners guilty of excessive flattery: they are immersed in the dung.
Ditch 3: Simonists: they are stuck in a hole upside down, with the soles of their feet burning with flames.
Ditch 4: Soothsayers: they walk with their heads turned backward.
Ditch 5: Grafters: they are immersed in boiling pitch.
Ditch 6: Hypocrites: they walk wearing heavy leaden robes, painted with gold
Ditch 7: Thieves: they have their hands tied behind their backs by snakes and suffer horrible metamorphosis.
Ditch 8: Deceivers who gave false or corrupted advice to others for personal benefit: they roam the pit, wrapped in a flame.
Ditch 9: Sinners who in life promoted scandals, schism, and discord: they are mutilated by a devil with a sword.
Ditch 10: Falsifiers: forgers of metals are affected by scabies, those of people snapping together, forgers of coins are tormented by thirst, and those of words are suffering from high fever.

Trafalgar Tavern ⚓ 🍻
#ParkRow, #Greenwich, #London, #SE10 | @TrafalgarT
This historic gem became one of my favourite #Pubs.
Allegedly the #UK's largest pub, the #Trafalgar is blessed with welcoming staff & is noticeably opulent both inside & out.
