9. In the region of Hell called Andhatamisra (Blinding darkness) that person also is treated in the same manner who deceives the husband and appropriates to himself his wife and other property; that person is cast down into this hell to suffer torments; under those sufferings he loses his understanding and sense (through excessive pain) and also his sight; he suffers like a tree whose roots are cut. Therefore they call it hell of *Andhatamisra*.
