The correct answer is D: Wicked. The Divine Comedy is an Italian long narrative poem by Dante Alighieri. One Dante's symbol is she-wolf. She-wolf represents the sins that human cannot resist, such as lust and adultery. The she-wolf is portrayed as a callous hunter who does not differentiate her victims, nor is she merciful. This view is also displayed in Christian literature, especially in the Bible.
