The wife of Beith, reformed and corrected. Giving an account of her death, and of her journey to heaven; how, on the road, she fell in with Judas, who led her to the gate of hell, and what conversation she had with the Devil, who would not let her in: also, how at last she got to heaven, and the difficulties she encountered before she got admittance there. The whole being an allegorical dialogue, containing nothing but that which is recorded in scripture for our example.
