Can adjectives describe its preceding noun with a comma?
What I'm asking is not about the typical version of 1.
I have often come across case 1 in novels, but I'm not sure whether I have seen cases 2, 3, 4 used in novels, though I seem to have happened by at least one of them. Would you tell me whether cases 2, 3, 4 can be used informally according to context or you have seen such cases in novels? I think they're all possible informally, though not grammatical, if context is clear enough that the adjectives are not seen as describing the subject, and I want some examples for each case as well.
1. Subject, adjective and adjective, Verb Object
(Adjectives describe Subject)
2. Subject Verb Object, adjective and adjective.
(Adjectives describe Object)
3. Subject Verb Object 1 preposition Object 2, adjective and adjective.
(Adjectives describe Object 1)
4. Subject Verb Object 1 preposition Object 2, adjective and adjective.
(Adjectives describe Object 2)

fire1 examples for each case That's the problem. Your question is so abstract that without examples it's not easy to understand what you want. I can't imagine anyone racking their brains trying to find or to create sentences which conform to those unusual patterns.
