* **There the prisoners are at ease together** - AT: "People who were in prison are at peace together."
* **the voice of the slave driver** - Here "voice" is a metonym for the power that the slave drivers have over the slaves. AT: "They are no longer under the control of the slave drivers." (See: [[:en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy]])
* **The small and the great** - This is a figure of speech which means "all people, both poor people and rich people." (See: [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_merism]])
