1. There is the Worm. 2. There is the Serpent.
1. There is the Worm, •o torture the spirit; and this is no other but the worm of Conscience, Mark 4. 44. Where their worm never dies: How dreadful will it be to have this Worm gnawing continually! Melanchthon called it, a hellish fury. Conscience will be just as if a Worm full of poison were gnawing the heart of a man: Those sinners that would never hear the voice of Conscience, shall for ever feel the worm of Conscience.

Melancthon called it, a hellish fury. Conscience will be just as if a Worm full of poyson were gnawing the heart of a man: Those sinners that would never hear the voice of Conscience, shall for ever feel the worm of Conscience.
2. There is the Serpent, and that is the Devil, called, the old Serpent, Revel. 4. As there is the biting of the Worm, so there is the stinging of the Serpent. The damned in Hell shall be forced to behold the Devil, that damned Monster. I remember what Anselm saith, I had rather endure all the torments of this life, than see the Devil with bodily eyes: But this sight of the Devil the wicked shall see whether they will or no; and not only see, but shall feel the stingings of this old Serpent.
