A miraculous proof of the resurrection: or, The life to come demonstrated. Being a strange but true relation of what hapned to Mris Anna Atherton: who lay in a trance 7 days, and had burning coals applyed to her feet, but no life appeared: and liv'd comfortably 2 years after: with her speech to her mother when she came to life, verbatim, as it came from her brother Dr. Atherton, physician in Caermarthen. Published, now seasonably, as an invitation to an holy life in maidens, in this adulterous, and atheistical generation, wherein neither God, Christ, soul, heaven nor hell are minded; but drinking, whoring, swaring [sic], lying, &c. to be a curb to vice, & incourage vertue
