Answer:
<h3>devour.</h3>
Explanation:
The word which has a similar connotation to the word "swallow" in this excerpt is 'devour'. In the above excerpt, the writer talks about how the hell is eagerly waiting for them with its mouth wide open.
It projects the idea that the hell is impatiently waiting and paints a picture of <u>eagerness and excitement</u>. The word 'devour' would seem most appropriate to connect with the word 'swallow' as devour means to <u>consume eagerly and quickly.</u>
An indirect characterization could be that she is greedy, selfish, and impatient. We can see this in how she goes to the Devil to make a deal with him on her own, rather than waiting for her husband to do it. We can also see this in the fact the story says she keeps things from him, even though they're are married. This could show how she only desires things for herself and doesn't want to share. Hope this helps! :)
I think it is the third one but im not 100% sure
