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.

2. Consider, if thou never come, thy blood will be charged on thy own head; and so much the more, because thou hast been told of thy misery and sin: and also of the safety thou shalt be in, if thou do indeed come into this Lord Jesus. Ezek. 33.1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning, if the sword cometh, and taketh away any person, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, (that is, the good news of the Gospel) and taketh not warning, that is, did not fly to Jesus Christ for succour, his blood shall be upon his own head.

3. Consider, what pains Christ Jesus took for the ransoming of thy soul from all the curses, thunder-claps, and tempests of the law; from all the intolerable flames of hell; from that soul sinking appearance of thy person (on the left hand) before the judgement-seat of Christ Jesus, from everlasting fellowship with innumerable companies of yelling, and soul-amazing devils. I say, consider what pains the Lord Jesus Christ took ⟨p. 232⟩in bringing in redemption for sinners from these things.
