P. YOu that have spent your time in wickedness Now mind the dying words I shall express Do not like me abuse your precious time Nor waste one moment when you 'r in your prime And do not promise to repent to Mo●row Least e're it comes you 'r overtook with sorrow Some are struck dead you very well do know How can you tell but your case may be so See how I languish on my Dying-Bed To think upon what I have done or sed But let me now to you a Warning be Sin to forsake and shun iniquity Frequent the Church to which I once was strange But now repent it since I now must change This wicked world and for my Grave prepare To be where blest or cursed People are The sins that once were pleasant unto me To my poor Soul sad Torments now they be But he that did his Blood for sinners spill I hope he will have Mercy on me still His Mercies see by no means you abuse For Conscience at the last will you accuse For your misdeeds and in your Face will flye And sting your souls when you shall come to dye To others do as you would be done by This Reason is and Iustice certainly And pleasant is our Creators sight For he in Iustice always takes delight Bad Company see you avoid and shun Thousands thereby have surely been undone And brought themselves to their untimely ends To the great grief and sorrow of their Friends Lewd Wom●n by no means do you come near Least for your pleasure you do pay full dear That is the Fountain of all Mischief and Bri●gs shame and sorrow to our Native Land. But Gods commands obey in eve●y thing Amongst the Saints then shall you praises sing Your Souls be happy when your bodies dye And you shall live with Christ eternally But now I 'm almost ready to depart The guilt of Sin doth pierce my tender heart I tremble when I think upon the bar Where God and his dear Son the Iudges are And if my Saviour do not stand my friend On whom my faith and hopes do both depend My case will prove but bad and I shall be Banisht his presence to Eternity Amongst the wicked ones I shall remain In Flames to burn and feel immortal pain Blessed God forgive my sins that I Be freed from pains that last Eternally O let thy sufferings for my sins suff●ce And pardon all my gross iniquities That after Death my Soul may flye to thee And with thy Saints for ever blessed be Thy Mercies do in number far exceed The sins which make my dying heart to bleed And therein lies the very bounds and scope That thou wilt grant me that for which I hope My fainting spirits now I recommend Into thy hands for now my life must end And having gained pardon for my sin When life doth end my joys will then begin All you that read these Lines when I am dead Pray ponder well the words that I have sed For without doubt you 'l find them to be true And so I bid this sinful World adieu FINIS
