M. Perkins, his Exhortation to repentance, out of Zephaniah preached in 2. sermons in…

The third part of the curse, under which every man is borne, is, the second death: the death of soul and body; which is the eternal want of Gods presence, and the accomplishment of his wrath: and an apprehension and feeling of that wrath, seizing on body, soul, and conscience. The first curse, was a spiritual death; the death of the soul, The second a temporary death, the death of the body. The third, is an eternal death, a death both of soul and body together; and for ever. This eternal death is the curse of all curses, the misery of all miseries, and torment of all torments: and I show it thus. Often when thy tooth acheth, and sometime when thy head acheth, or in the pain of the stone or colic, thou wouldest give all that thou hast in the world to be eased of that pain: Nay, in the extremity of some fits, many will wish them-selves even out of the world: Now, if the pain of one tooth, can so far distemper mind and body, that ⟨p. 39⟩it cannot be relieved with all the pleasures of this life; O then, what a torment shall that be? when not one kind of pain, but the whole viol of Gods wrath shall be poured, not on one member, but on the whole soul body, and conscience, and that not for a time, under hope of better: but eternally without hope of release; and that not in this world, where there are comforts, helps and remedies: but in that ugly and darksome place of torments: and that not amongst living men, which might mitigate thy pain, or else bemoan thee, and beway leit with thee: but with the Devils, and damned spirits, which will now laugh at thy destruction, and solace themselves in this thy misery, and will rejoice, as thou diddest serve them in earth, so now in hell to be thy tormenters. It may be therefore (by the way), good warning and wisdom to us all, when we feel the extremity of some bodily pain, to consider with our selves, and say: O then, what shall be my misery and torment ⟨p. 40⟩if I repent not; when not one member, but soul, body, and conscience, shall be racked and tormented in the feeling and apprehension of the anger of the Lord of Hosts.

The thirde part of the curse, vnder which euery man is borne, is, the second death: the death of soule and bodie; which is the eternall want of Gods presence, and the accomplishment of his wrath: and an apprehension and feeling of that wrath, seazing on body, soule, and conscience. The first curse, was a spirituall death; the death of the soule, The second a temporarie death, the death of the body. The third, is an eternall death, a death both of soule and bodie together; and for euer. This eternall death is the curse of all curses, the miserie of all miseries, and torment of all torments: and I shewe it thus. Often when thy tooth acheth, and sometime when thy head acheth, or in the paine of the stone or collicke, thou wouldest giue all that thou hast in the world to bee eased of that paine: Nay, in the exstremitie of some fitts, many will wish them-selues euen out of the world: Now, if the paine of one tooth, can so farre distemper minde and body, that
