      288. Inter Inferum et infernum. Pars superior inferni inferus est, ubi quieverunt ante adventum Christi animae justorum. Pars vero inferior infernus, in quo truduntur [ Al., traduntur] animae impiorum qui [col. 39D] plurimum peccaverunt. De quo Propheta animam suam liberatam esse gaudet [ Al., congaudet], dicens: [col. 40A] Quia liberasti animam meam ab inferno inferiori.
