2. The Drunkard will be also tormented with Shame: I was such a Fool, (he then may say) that for the sake of my Cups, and Love to my cursed Companions, and merry Bouts, have lost God, the Perfection of Happiness; I rather chose to go to the Ale-house, or Tavern, to Drink and carouse with these Damned Wretches, than to go to hear Gods Word; I derided them that feared to sin against God, and accounted them Fools, but I must lye in Hell for ever, and pay dear for my wickedness.

I sought vain Honour, and pleased my self with a Name, all my Design was to be great, and had in Esteem among Men; I was proud of my Estate, and despised he Poor; I was of a Haughty Spirit, and gloried in my Titles of Honour; I sought the Favour of my Prince, but regarded not the Favour of God; I was proud of my Parts, I gloried in my Gifts, in my Beauty, in my Strength; I delighted my self in Antic Dresses, and in Decking of my Vile Body that now is here burning in Hell; I was so Graceless, that I would not leave off Idle and Foolish Fashions, though Godly Ministers were grieved at me, and told me my Doom, and tho' God bore Witness against my High Head and Haughty Heart, by strange Prodigies in Nature, seen in divers poor Animals, yet I still vaunted my self in Pride, and Wantonness, and laughed at Christs Ministers when they reproved me. O what shame torments me now, here must I lye in Hell under Gods Wrath for ever, and pay dear for my Folly!
