- the demons of the inferno would change colors when they were tired and weary
- they would also speak blasphemies against God and all those that followed God
- they all were tired but they went to the shore where all those that do not follow God meet
- the reason that they meet at this shore is so that good spirits cannot pass
- When Dante went into the heathens he said that is was very dark and very deep and clouded
- in the first circle of the abyss there was no sound other than the tremble of the earth that was made by the sorrows of the men and the women
- these people where there not because they had sinned but because they were living beings and their life had value
- they were in the heathens because they did not value that worth of life since they were not baptized and that alone was enough for them to be damned
- by doing so they did not follow God and Christianity correctly
- when Dante was told this he was sad because he was certain that he knew good people that were not baptized that were probably in this situation
- in the end Dante finds out that no human was saved before the time of Adam
- Jesus saved Adam and all those that came after him after he came into the Limbo and saved their souls
Circle 1 of the Limbo
