Detailed explanation-1: -Dante the Pilgrim weeps and suffers with those who are suffering their punishments. He reacts to Francesca’s love for Paolo, her horrible betrayal, and her punishment so strongly that he faints.
Detailed explanation-2: -Virgil tells Dante to take comfort in Charon’s first refusal to carry him on the boat, because only condemned spirits come this way. As Virgil finishes his explanation, a sudden earthquake, accompanied by wind and flashing fire from the ground, terrifies Dante to such a degree that he faints.
Detailed explanation-3: -Canto 5 is, more or less, a speculation on the divergences between love and lust. Set in the second circle of hell, Dante’s fifth installment in his Inferno is characterized by much darker descriptions of suffering.
Detailed explanation-4: -The story begins with Dante getting lost in the woods on Maundy Thursday. He intends to climb a mountain but encounters three wild beasts who threaten him; as he wonders what to do, Virgil, the author of the Latin epic Aeneid, appears.
