Now I saw in my Dream, that when Obstinate was gon back, Christian and Pliable went [1]talking over the Plain; and thus they began their discourse,

Christ. Come Neighbour Pliable, how do you do? I am glad your are perswaded to go along with me; and had even Obstinate himself, but felt what I have felt of the Powers, and Terrours of what is yet unseen, he would not thus lightly have given us the back.

Pliable. Come Neighbour Christian, since there is none but us two here, tell me now further, what the things are: and how to be enjoyed, whither we are going?

Ch. I can better conceive of them with my Mind, then speak of them with my Tongue: But yet since you are desirous to know, I will read of them in my Book.

Pli. And do you think that the words of your Book are certainly true?

Ch Yes verily, for it was made by him that [2]cannot lye.

Plia: Well said; what things are they?

Ch. There is an [3]endless Kingdom
