3. Whither do you think those Children go, when they dye, that will not do what they are bid, but play the Truant, and Lye, and speak naughty words, and break the Sabbath? Whither do such Children go, do you think? Why, I will tell you, they which Lye, must go to their Father the Devil into everlasting burning; they which never pray, God will pour out his wrath upon them; and when they beg and pray in Hell Fire, God will not forgive them, but there they must lye for ever.
4. And are you willing to go to ⟨image 7⟩Hell to be burned with the Devil and his Angels? Would you be in the same condition with naughty Children? O Hell is a terrible place, that's worse a thousand times than whipping; Gods anger is worse than your Fathers anger; and are you willing to anger God? O Child, this is most certainly true, that all that be wicked, and die so, must be turned into Hell; and if any be once there, there is no coming out again.

O Child, this is most certainly true, that all that be wicked, and die so, must be turned into Hell; and if any be once there, there is no coming out again.
5. Would you not do any thing in the World rather than be thrown into Hell Fire? would you not do any thing in the World to get Christ, and grace and glory?
