Detailed explanation-1: -They are punished by having their body frozen in Cocytus with only their heads sticking out. Their face is bent downward towards the ice, so that it receives some protection from the cold. Dante sees two sinners stuck in the ice very close to each other.
Detailed explanation-2: -What Is the Ninth Circle of Hell? Dante’s final circle of Hell is reserved for the worst of sinners in the author’s perspective. In this last circle at the very center of the Inferno, Dante places those guilty of treachery and betrayal towards loved ones, close friends, their country, and their masters.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the Fourth Circle of Hell, sinners are punished by being forced to fight each other. Each person pushes a large, rolling weight with his or her chest and crashes into someone guilty of the opposing sin from the other side of the circle.
Detailed explanation-4: -Second Circle: those overcome by lust are punished in this circle. They are the first ones to be truly punished in Hell. These souls are blown about to and fro by a violent storm, without hope of rest. This symbolizes the power of lust to blow one about needlessly and aimlessly.
Detailed explanation-5: -In this circle are punished people who used fraud against those with whom they had no special bond of trust (simple fraud). Dante names the eighth circle of Hell ‘Malebolge’, which could roughly be translated as ‘evil-sacks’.
