Answer:

The misery of being away from God after having known the joys of Heaven.

Explanation:

Christopher Marlowe's "The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus" revolves around the character of Dr. Faustus, a well known German scholar. Dissatisfied with the traditional knowledge that the world provides, he embarks on a deal with the devil, thus acquiring ways to know the wisdom beyond human capacity.

Mephistophilis was the servant of the Devil who helps Faustus and partakes in the deal and convincing him about the deal. He also facilitates whatever requests Faustus has, acting as an agent for the devil. When asked by Faustus how hell feels like, he remarks that hell is the misery of being away from God after knowing the joys of Heaven. He also added that Hell is everywhere and it is the dam ned who are forever cut away from God and his kingdom.

Mephistophilis describes Hell as a condition or state of being.

Mephistophilis is one of the characters that appear in Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. He is a demon that warns Faustus about the consequences of rejecting God. Moreover, when Faustus asks Mephistophilis to describe Hell, he tells him that Hell is not a place like many people believe. In contrast, Hell is a condition or a state of being. Furthermore, he explains Faustus that Hell is in all the places where God is not. Therefore, Hell is equal to the absence of God.

Hi there!
As per question, there are two possible answers. They are "The repeated words emphasize controlling thoughts and dreams." and "The repeated words make thoughts and dreams easier to grasp.". However, I'm going with the answer having the Option:-
The repeated words make thoughts and dreams easier to grasp.
Proof :-
Let's check the other given options.
(1) The repeated words emphasize controlling thoughts and dreams.
 It's the same meaning as the theme given. So, it won't be asked directly.
(2) The repeated words caution readers against danger.
 The given lines aren't frightening for the readers. These are just the lines showing about it. So this option won't be applicable.
(4) The repeated words explain the importance of love and honesty.
 It is completely different from the given extract of the poem. We are talking about Triumph and Disaster. So, that option is also incorrect.

Hence, Proved that the answer is (3)"The repeated words make thoughts and dreams easier to grasp."
