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.

Would thou know what thou art, and what is in thy heart, then search the Scriptures, and see what's written in them. Rom. 3. from 9. to 18. Rom 1.19.30, 31, 32. Jer. 17.9. Gen. 6.5. ch. 8.21. Eph. 4.18. with many others. The Scriptures I say, they are able to give a man perfect instruction into any of the things of God necessary to faith and godliness, if he have but an honest heart, seriously to weigh and ponder the several things contained in them. As to instance in things more particular ⟨p. 142⟩for the further clearing up of this; And first if we come to the creation of the world.
Wouldest thou know somewhat concerning that, then read Gen. 1. and 2. chap. and compare them with Psal, 33. at the 6. Also, Isaiah 66.2. Prov. 8. toward the end.
Wouldest thou know whether he made them of something or nothing, read Heb. 11.3.
