The vial poured out upon the sea. A remarkable relation of certain pirates brought unto a tragical and untimely end. Some conferences with them, after their condemnation. Their behaviour at their execution. And a sermon preached on that occasion. : [Two lines from Job]

M. Your case is very Bad: Wretched, Forlorn beyond Expression. But, you must not look on it as Desperate. You must not say, Our Hope is lost. There is yet Hope in Israel for you. 'Tis true, There's no Hope of your Living any longer in this World. Nor indeed have you ever yet Lived. You are no longer capable of having that Mercy shown you that shall prolong your Life ▪ Your Life here is ⟨p. 8⟩forfeited! Humane Society has been so wronged by you, that you may not be suffered any longer to continue in it. But there is yet room for you to Hope, and look for the Mercy of the Lord JESUS CHRIST, in an Everlasting Life, And will not the Thought of This, wonderfully melt and break your Hearts within you! Tho' you have been so wicked overmuch, that the Sword of Justice can do no other, than Cause you to Die before your Time, yet there is Mercy with GOD for you, if you Return to Him; yea, He will Abundantly Pardon you; and you may after Death be received into the Rest and Peace and Joy of an Heavenly Paradise: And the great REDEEMER, will Remember you, [as He will a Penitent Thief!] when he comes in His Kingdom, and in the Resurrection of the Dead Remember you with the Favour which He bears unto His People. Will you then with awakened Souls, attend unto what I am going to set before you; and will you set your Hearts unto it?
