Episode 39 - Canto 7 and 8, at the gate of City of Dis, in the Inferno.

After presenting three more of the deadly sins - avarice, sloth and wrath, Dante and Virgil reach the gates of the City of Dis which marks the transition from Upper to Lower Hell in the Inferno.

They try to get in, but:

Our adversaries slammed the heavy gates
in my lord's face, and he stood there outside

Verse 115-116, Canto VIII.

But then someone is coming, already come past the main gate in Canto III, where all hope shall be left behind.

This insolence of theirs is nothing new;
they used it once at a less secret gate,
which is, and will forever be, unlocked;

you saw the deadly words inscribed above it;
and now, already past it, and descending,
across the circles, down the slope, alone,

comes one by whom the city will be opened."

Verse 124-130, Canto VIII.
