- Edwards once said, "..the world of misery, the lake of burning brimstone, is extended abroad, under you. There is a dreadful pit of the glowing flames of the wrath of God..." 197. This would be more of the illustration of the other example of symbolism. This would be illustrating there is play for whoever doesn't stand by God.
- The God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect over the fire, abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked...", Edwards 199.

- Edwards said, "the devils watch them; they are ever by them at their right hand; they stand waiting for them, like greedy hungry lions that see their prey, and expect to have it...", 194. This was an example of simile due to how he was comparing how they are watching like they were lions.
