A Timely warning, to all rash and disobedient children [electronic resource] : Being a strange and wonderful relation of Thomas Williams, a young gentleman in the parish of bridgewater, that sold himself to the devil for twelve years, in order to be revenged of his father and mother: and how his time being expired, the devil, in dreadful storm of rain, thunder, lightning, and hail, fetched him away, dashing out his brains against the walls of the room where he was sitting in the midst of several divines whom his parents had invited to pray with him, and tore him limb from limb, and scattered them on a dunghill behind the house. To which is added, a sermon on this unhappy accident; and also a prayer against temptation. Very useful and necessary for all christian families, which no one ought to be without.
