Preface v
Additional Note xi
A Prefatory Address to the Catholic Reader xi
THE FIRST SURVEY.
Purgatory is laid open, with all the hellish pains with which the souls are tormented 1
Section 1. — Of the fire of Purgatory, and pain of sense
Section 2. — Of the worm, and pain of loss 13
Section 3. — Other considerations, much aggravating these pains 25
Section 4. — How long the souls are detained in Purgatory 33
Section 5. — Whether their pains grow less and less 41
Section 6. — A notable example in confirmation of all the preceding doctrine 44
THE SECOND SURVEY.
A glimpse of the Paradise of Purgatory, or of the ineffable joys and heavenly consolations of the souls there 47
Section 1. — How these excessive joys can be consistent with their unspeakable torments 48
Section 2. — Two grounds of their comforts; the double assurance they have of their salvation, and impeccability 52
Section 3. — More grounds of comfort, arising from their voluntarily suffering, their disinterested love of God, and exact conformity with His holy will 58
Section 4. — Another comfortable consideration, drawn from the desire they have to make themselves worthy of the sight of God 68
Section 5. — Their suffering without merit, and the free exercise of their virtues without impediment, are to them special motives of comfort 71
Section 6. — They joy in the continual decrease of their pains, and influence of pure heavenly consolations 76
