If one were âin the gall of bitterness,â then one might be said to be full of some really bad, âtoxicâ ideas. However, when the two nouns that are linked together both âmeanâ the same thing, the effect is intensification: âheart of heartsâ means âinnermost feelingsâ and so on. So we need to know what the two nouns mean. Bitterness is a sharp pain, more or less. Gall, however, is a bit more complicated. It can mean âbitter feeling,â in which case this expression intensifies the expression of pain: one who is âin the gall of bitternessâ is experiencing the bitterest of pains.
