The Doom of the Libertine
Proverbs 5:11
And you mourn at the last, when your flesh and your body are consumed,


I. WASTE OF WEALTH. It is spent to garnish the house of sin; it is so much taken from home-scenes, and legitimate pleasures and benevolence.

II. WASTE OF HEALTH. Note the corruption of licentious nations, as the Turks, etc.

III. WASTE OF TEARS. Mourning at the last is too late for proving the repentance to be genuine.

(Anon.)
