Detailed explanation-1: -He sees three animals: a leopard; a lion; and a she-wolf. A figure appears, who Dante realises is Virgil, the Roman poet. Virgil explains that Dante will have to avoid the three beasts, and makes an enigmatic prophecy.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Leopard of Malice is the first animal to block Dante’s path. When Dante tries to go around the leopard, the Lion of Ambition appears. Finally when he tries to get past the other beast the She-wolf of Incontinence blocks his way.
Detailed explanation-3: -The lion is described as enormous and represents pride. The she-wolf appears to be wasting away and represents greed. The three beasts force Dante away from Heaven and back into the dark forest.
Detailed explanation-4: -When he tries yet again to get around that second beast, what third animal blocks his path? Then a “she-wolf” blocks his path. Dante then sees a spirit in the desert, and asks this spirit for help. This spirit offers to guide him through Hell.
