A49289 An alarm to slumbring Christians, or the parable of the wise and foolish virgins and of the talents, sheep and goats; being a plain and practical exposition of the whole XXV chapter of St. Matthews gospel, calling upon all professors to a strict and constant watchfulness, lest their Lord at his certain and second coming, find them not ready, but with their lamps gone out.

now_o come_v to_o the_o reply_n of_o the_o wise_a virgin_n to_o the_o foolish_a virgin_n request_n which_o reply_n of_o they_o seem_v to_o savour_v of_o harshness_n and_o uncharitableness_n in_o these_o three_o circumstance_n first_o their_o positive_a denial_n of_o their_o request_n in_o this_o time_n of_o their_o need_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d not_o so_o which_o word_n must_v be_v

for_o both_o three_o doctrine_n from_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o speak_n by_o way_n of_o irony_n and_o mock_v from_o whence_o this_o doctrine_n arise_v that_o one_o part_n of_o the_o punishment_n
