For those wishing to know: this is a chap book, not from a religious 
series, which sold in the early part of the 19th century in England.  It 
tells, in verse, two (fictional) tales where people take no religious 
thought and come to a terrible end.  The story of Nancy Wilmont, who 
sinfully DANCED on her wedding night and so was struck dead, will be a 
lesson to many(!)

All the best,
David,
England, growing cool and the skies light gray
