Thomas Paine

Question 1 • 26/27 ENGLISH 11 A

Select the words that Edwards uses in his sermon to make hell seem like a living thing.

Answer
A
swallow
B
wicked
C
lay hold
D
gaping
E
loathsome

Explanation

Edwards makes hell seem alive through actions or features associated with a living creature: it can “swallow” people, “lay hold” of them, and has a “gaping” mouth. “Wicked” and “loathsome” describe qualities, but they do not make hell seem like a living thing.
