A few sighs from hell, or, The groans of a damned soul. Or, An exposition of those words in the sixteenth of Luke, concerning the rich man and the beggar : wherein is discovered the lamentable state of the damned : their cries, their desires in their distresses, with the determination of God upon them. A good warning word to sinners, both old and young, to take into consideration betimes, and to seek by faith in Jesus Christ to avoid, lest they come into the same place of torment. Also a brief discourse touching the profitableness of the Scriptures for our instruction in the way of righteousness, according to the tendency of the said parable. / By that poor and contemptible servant of Jesus Christ, John Bunyan.A few sighs from hell, or, The groans of a damned soul.

Again, you may observe from these words. And in hell he lift up his eyes being in torment. That the time of the ungodly mens smarting for their sins, will be in the torments of hell. Now here I am put to a stand, when I consider the torments of hell, into which the damned do fall. O unspeakable torments! O endless torments! Now that thy soul might be made to flee from these intolerable torments, into which the damned do go. I shall show you darkly and briefly what are the torments of hell. First, by the means of it. Secondly, by the sad state thou wilt be in, if thou comest there. First the names. It is called a never dying worm. Mark 9. It is called an oven, fire hot, Malachi 4.1. It is called a furnace, a fiery furnace, Mat. 13. It is called the bottomless pit, the unquenchable fire, fire and brimstone, hell fire, the lake of fire, devouring fire, everlasting fire, eternal fire, a stream of fire. Rev. 21.
