TO THE READER.
Courteous Reader,
One reason which moved me to Write and Print this Little Book, was, because, though there are many Excellent Heart-affecting Discourses in the World that tends to Convert the Sinner; yet I had a desire to try this simple Method of mine: ⟨image 3⟩Wherefore I Make bold thus to Invite and Encourage the Worst to come to Christ for Life.

I have been Vile my self, but have obtained Mercy, and I would have my Companions in Sin partake of Mercy too, and therefore I have writ this Little Book.
