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.

Art thou troubled with cross children, cross relations, cross neighbours, they shall trouble thee no longer then this life time.
Art thou troubled with a cunning devil, with unbelief, yea, let it be what it will, thou shalt take thy farewell of them all (if thou be a believer) after thy life time is ended. O excellent! O sweet! that there should be an end put to all our troubles after this life is ended: this privilege have all the Saints. But ⟨p. 89⟩now on the contrary, if thou be not a right and sound believer, if thou be no• indeed effectual converted to the Lord Jesus Christ, then though thou shouldst live a thousand years in this world, and meet with sore afflictions every day, yet these afflictions be they never so great and grievous, they are nothing to that torment that will come upon thee both in soul & in body after this life is ended.
