A call to the unconverted, to turn and live
A call to the unconverted, to turn and live; and accept of mercy, while mercy may be had; as they ever would find mercy, in the day of extremity from the living God. / By his unworthy servant, Richard Baxter.

PREFACE. "The editor of this publication hopes from the established reputation of the several tracts of which it is composed, that it will be found a more complete system for the instruction of the female world, than perhaps any other extant. "A volume under the present title was lately published in England and Ireland, and had a most rapid sale, having been purchased by almost every lady of taste in those kingdoms. To this volume, the American editor has added Miss More's essays; Mrs. Chapone's letter on the government of the temper; and Swift's letter to a lady newly married. These have considerably enhanced its value; and he doubts not, the ladies on this side the Atlantic, will be as generous in their encouragement of a work intended for their advantage, as those in England and Ireland have been."
