Dante is standing at the mouth of hell with Virgil and he feels a great sense of dread and apprehension about continuing. Virgil then tells him that a women told him to find Dante and be his guide in hell, this lady was Beatrice. She came down from Heaven to tell Virgil of Dante's story and ask him to help Dante. Beatrice was Dante's true love (in real life and in the story) who died and is now counted among the blessed in Heaven. She had learned of Dante's plight from St. Lucia, also in Heaven, who in turn heard about the poor poet from the Virgin Mary. Beatrice symbolizes divine love and is sent by Mary and Lucia to help Dante by enlisting Virgil's help. Beatrice also knows that Dante will listen to Virgil if he knows that she has intervened and still loves him and that he is being watched over.

Mike Schofield bet that Richard Pratt would not be able to guess the name of a special wine he had bought for the dinner.
Explanation:
Richard Pratt was a guest at a dinner organized by a stock broker named Mike Schofield. Richard Pratt was a gourmet. At the dinner, Mike Schofield presented a wine to Richard Pratt and challenged him to guess the name of the wine. In exchange for guessing correctly, Mike Schofield offered to give his daughter, Louise in marriage to Pratt. Pratt offered his two houses in case he failed at the challenge.
The result of the challenge was that Richard Pratt was able to guess correctly the name of the wine to Schofield's dismay. It was however later discovered that Pratt cheated as he had earlier been to Mr.Schofield's study where the wine was kept.
