They are still in the 6th circle, where heretics
are buried

• Dante is asking Virgil if people who lie in
  sepulchers could be seen, and why they do not
  have guardian
• Virgil explains to him those people rejected the
  idea of immortality of the soul, and they can not
  come out until last judgement
• Dante really wants to see which people from
  Florence are in that circle

• At one point a voice came out of the sepulcher
  telling Dante his accent sounds like he is from
  Florence
• Virgil tells Dante that voice is Farinata, and
  Dante will be able to see him from waist up.
• Dante had to be careful how he talks to him

  told him the whole story
• Farinata realized their families were enemies

• Another shadow came out
• That shadow was Cavalcanti whose son was Dantes
  friend
• Cavalcanti asked Dante why his son was not with
  him
• Dante used past tense to explain him and the
  shadow thought his son was dead
• He got sad and went down to his sepulcher

• Farinata and Dante talked about what happened
  between their families
• He predicts Dantes exile from Florence
• Farinata tells Dante people who are in that
  circle do not know the present on earth, they can
  only see the future. He asked him to tell
  Cavalcanti that his son is not dead
