- Suppose, brethren, there was a person traveling along the road. They’d see a large deluge, whose near shore was dubious and perilous, while the far shore was a sanctuary free of peril. But there was no ferryboat or bridge for crossing over.

- Therefore things are thus: So, there's this large deluge, a dubious and perilous near shore, a safe far shore free of peril; and there is neither a ferry boat or a bridge to go from the near shore to the far shore.
