BOTTOMLESS PIT
A symbol of the desire and sensation nature which
is never satisfied. The "beast" within it is the desire-mind, the
adversary of the Spirit.
"What does he call the bottomless pit' but the hearts of men, which
are at once by the Fall all floating, and by the mistiness of
double-dealing full of darkness?" - ST. GREGORY, Morals on the Book
of Job, Vol. II. p. 368.
“Self-disease, the satiety which consumes, the dreadful loneliness
which corrupts the soul, that passionate lust for more which is
itself the unsatisfied worm which eats away the heart." - STOPFORD
