Episode 43 - Lower Part of the Inferno, Canto 9-28. The scenes get more graphic.
In this episode we give a broader overview of the Lower Inferno from the City of Dis, down through the waterfall, and deep into the 8th circle.
The three main parts of the inferno is the incontinence (lack of self-restraint), violence (to self or others), and different forms of fraud in the deepest part journey.
From the scene of the waterfall, into the abyss:
I saw a figure coming, it was swimming
through the thick and murky air, up to the top
(a thing to startle even stalwart hearts),
like one returning who has swum below
to free the anchor that has caught its hooks
on a reef or something else the sea conceals,
spreading out his arms, and doubling up his legs.
Canto XIV, verse 130-136.
