A77813	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 tendancy of the said parable. / By that poor and contemptible servant of Jesus Christ, John Bunyan.	Bunyan, John, 1628-1688.	1658 (1658)	Wing B5516; Thomason E1927_2; ESTC R210338	119,232	307

thy_o soul_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n verse_n 23._o and_o in_o hell_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n be_v in_o torment_n and_o see_v abraham_n afar_o off_o and_o lazarus_n in_o his_o bosom_n something_o in_o brief_a i_o have_v observe_v from_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o verse_n namely_o from_o these_o word_n and_o in_o hell_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n and_o indeed_o i_o have_v observe_v but_o something_o for_o they_o be_v very_o full_a of_o matter_n and_o many_o thing_n possible_o may_v be_v take_v notice_n of_o in_o they_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o that_o i_o may_v touch_v upon_o as_o touch_v in_o this_o say_n and_o that_o be_v this_o methink_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v hereby_o signify_v that_o man_n be_v natural_o unwilling_a to_o see_v or_o take_v notice_n of_o their_o sad_a state_n i_o say_v by_o nature_n but_o though_o now_o they_o be_v willing_o ignorant_a yet_o in_o hell_n they_o shall_v lift_v up_o their_o eye_n that_o be_v in_o hell_n they_o shall_v see_v and_o understand_v their_o miserable_a condition_n and_o therefore_o to_o these_o word_n in_o hell_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n he_o add_v be_v in_o torment_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v though_o once_o they_o shut_v their_o eye_n though_o once_o they_o be_v willing_o ignorant_a yet_o when_o they_o depart_v into_o hell_n they_o shall_v be_v so_o miserable_o handle_v and_o torment_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v force_v to_o lift_v up_o their_o eye_n for_o while_o man_n live_v in_o this_o world_n and_o be_v in_o a_o natural_a state_n they_o will_v have_v a_o good_a conceit_n of_o themselves_o and_o of_o their_o condition_n they_o will_v conclude_v that_o they_o be_v christian_n and_o their_o state_n to_o be_v as_o good_a as_o the_o best_a they_o will_v conclude_v they_o have_v faith_n the_o spirit_n good_a hope_n and_o a_o interest_n in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o then_o when_o they_o drop_v into_o hell_n and_o lift_v up_o their_o eye_n there_o and_o behold_v first_o their_o soul_n to_o be_v in_o extreme_a torment_n their_o dwelling_n to_o be_v the_o bottomless_a pit_n their_o company_n thousand_o of_o damn_a soul_n also_o the_o

awaken_v who_o all_o their_o life_n time_n be_v in_o a_o dead_a sleep_n i_o say_v when_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v lo_o it_o will_v then_o in_o hell_n they_o shall_v lift_v up_o their_o eye_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o torment_n they_o shall_v lift_v up_o their_o eye_n again_o you_o may_v observe_v from_o these_o word_n and_o in_o hell_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n be_v in_o torment_n that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o ungodly_a man_n smart_v for_o their_o sin_n will_v be_v in_o the_o torment_n of_o hell_n now_o here_o i_o be_o put_v to_o a_o stand_n when_o i_o consider_v the_o torment_n of_o hell_n into_o which_o the_o damn_a do_v fall_v o_o unspeakable_a torment_n o_o endless_a torment_n now_o that_o thy_o soul_n may_v be_v make_v to_o flee_v from_o these_o intolerable_a torment_n into_o which_o the_o damn_a do_v go_v i_o shall_v show_v you_o dark_o and_o brief_o what_o be_v the_o torment_n of_o hell_n first_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o it_o second_o by_o the_o sad_a state_n thou_o will_v

from_o first_o to_o last_o though_o here_o thou_o can_v sin_v to_o day_n and_o forget_v it_o by_o to_o morrow_n yet_o there_o thou_o shall_v be_v make_v to_o remember_v how_o thou_o do_v sin_n

shall_v lie_v in_o thy_o soul_n as_o if_o thy_o belly_n be_v full_a of_o pitch_n and_o set_v on_o a_o light_a fire_n now_o here_o man_n can_v sometime_o think_v on_o their_o sin_n with_o delight_n but_o there_o with_o unspeakable_a torment_n for_o that_o i_o understand_v to_o be_v the_o fire_n that_o christ_n speak_v of_o which_o shall_v never_o be_v quench_v mark_v while_o man_n live_v here_o o_o how_o do_v the_o guilt_n of_o one_o sin_n sometime_o crush_v the_o soul_n it_o make_v a_o man_n in_o such_o plight_n that_o he_o be_v weary_a of_o his_o life_n so_o that_o he_o can_v neither_o

for_o what_o a_o trifle_n thou_o do_v reject_v he_o this_o be_v plain_o hold_v forth_o in_o esay_n 28._o where_n speak_v of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o foundation_n of_o salvation_n ver_fw-la 16._o he_o say_v of_o they_o that_o reject_v the_o gospel_n that_o when_o the_o overflow_a scourge_n do_v pass_v through_o the_o earth_n which_o i_o understand_v to_o be_v at_o the_o end_n
