incensed

"In short, they have no refuge, nothing to take hold of; all that preserves them every moment is the mere arbitrary will, uncovenanted, unobliged forbearance of an incensed God."

P. 47 Elements of Literature

Incensed means to be angered or enraged.

  1. I agree with this because incense is also something you burn and anger can be described as "burning."

  3. Dictionary.com also says that incensed means inflamed with wrath, so I agree that it means enraged or made angry.
