 ſhall any Whit leſten thy Torments, but rather increaſe them; thy Life that hath been full of Wordly Joy, ſhall end in deadly Woe.

All you, into whoſe Hands this little Book ſhall come, O, let me beg you to conſider, in thoſe Bowels of Love you have to your own Souls, how your Hearts can endure to think, of being ſhut out of Heaven, out of Bleſſedneſs for ever: Ask your Heart theſe Queſtions, Can I burn? Can I endure the veangeance of eternal Fire? Will boiled Oyl, burning Brimſtone, ſcalding Lead, a glowing Oven, a ſcorching Furnace, be an ealy Lodging for me? O, Why my Soul, wilt thou not be perſuaded to repent? Is there too much Pain in that 1 Thou art ready to ſay, I can- not bear a Croſs nor any Afliction, a Scoff or a Reproach: Talk to thee, of cruifying the Fleſh, of parting with thy wordly Companions, of entring in at the ſtrait Gate: O theſe are hard Sayingr, who can bear them?

But how wilt thou do, to dwell with devouring Fire? How wilt thou dwell with everlaſting Burnings? Whatſoever thou think'ſt now, think what Hell will be when the Day comes, thou muſt deſcend into it; Thou may'll drink or laugh away thy Fear of it, but what will it be to thee, when thou feeleſt thy ſelf wrapped up in the Flames of it, and not a Drop of water to cool thy Tongue!
