"The Day of Doom; Or, a Poetical Description of the Great and Last Judgement" by Michael Wigglesworth is a religious poem published in 1662. This Puritan bestseller vividly depicts Judgment Day, detailing how God judges and sentences humanity. The work examines various types of people who believe themselves excusable yet face damnation. Spanning 224 stanzas, each verse draws directly from scripture to deliver its stark evangelical message. The poem became phenomenally popular in colonial New England, with one in twenty residents purchasing a copy.
