The text infers that Tom was not easily intimidated, and that he'd been married so long to a harsh-tempered, overbearing woman.... that the devil simply didn't frighten him.
Tom was a hard-minded fellow, not easily daunted, and he had lived so long with a termagant wife that he did not even fear the devil.
