Explanatory Note

It engulfs its victim, not allowing them any room for escape. This is what makes it dire indeed. Moreover, “it is indeed an evil abode and a terrible station.” Could there be a worse station than hell as a place of abode and settlement? How can anyone settle within the fire? How can there be an abode in a place of continuous burning?
