Sixth is called Boiling Well: the well water constantly boils; with an evil mind one threw impure things into a well; when the punishment is finished, for a hundred years they become a frog in a well. Seventh is called Stove Window: hell wardens thrust people headfirst into a stove window; in life, this woman looked at her own shadow and clothes to seduce other men. Eighth is called Mute Demon: the hell constantly burns their tongue with heated iron irons; in life, when their parents and teachers called them, they did not answer; after two hundred years, they are reborn as a mute person. Ninth is called Hot Ashes: seven hundred leagues filled with hot ashes; in life, this person aroused lustful desires, approached a chaste woman to spend the night, but in the end did not succeed; they suffer punishment for two hundred years, and in a later life suffer from sores and terror. Tenth is called Boiling Excrement: thirty thousand leagues filled with feces and urine, into which people are driven; formerly, when gifted fine food, they angrily said it was like eating filth; they undergo punishment for five hundred years and become pigs.
