Answer:

Virgil explains how due to Beatrice desire´s he is in hell guiding Dante.

Explanation:

For Virgil the fact that Dante compares with Aeneas and Paul turns out to be hurtful, since the first was the inspiration in the poem of his composition as he was the founder of Rome, and the second was one of the saints of his great admiration to be The founder of the Church.

In this sonnet Dante expresses his feelings of fear and conviction; he believes that he will become the next Aeneas or Paul after passing through hell, he really thinks something relevant will happen after.

Given these statements by Dante, Virgil explains the reason for his stay and guidance for his passage in hell, he tells her how Beatrice was in charge of this feat, since thanks to her wishes and sacrifices for the love of Dante, Beatrice he asks Virgil to guide his way through that place.
