Answer:

D. It is icy.

Explanation:

Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy" revolves around the 'journey' of the speaker through the underworld. Guided by Virgil, the journey takes the poets through the numerous circles of Hell, containing the different types of sinners and their punishments.

One surprising setting that the narrator visits in the Ninth Circle of Hell is the frozen lake, Cocytus. Considering how Hell is perceived to be a massive space of fiery burning and pain, the image of a frozen and icy lake is one surprising setting to be found in Hell. Moreover, Lucifer is also seen to be buried waist-deep in this icy lake.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
