Dunton, John.
Title
The hazard of a death-bed-repentance, fairly argued, : from the late remorse of W- late D- of D- with serious rflections on his adulterous life - on his living so long in a known sin - on that Latin epitaph he order'd to be set on the tomb-stone of Miss Campion - and upon his seeming penitence in his last sickness. Also, the dying remonstrance of other persons of quality; and in particular, of John Hampden Esq; (formerly Knight of the Shire for Bucks) being a paper he sent by Monsieur Alix to Dr. Patrick, late Bishop of Ely. The whole resolving that nice question, how far a death-bed-repentance is possible to be sincere? And is publish'd by way of answer to Dr. K-'s sermon, preach'd at the funeral of W- late D- of D- to which is added, conjugal perjury, or an essay upon whoredom; address'd to the husbands of quality that keep misses..
