JOHN BUNYAN'S DREAM STORY
Faithful, being freed from the body, was taken up into it; and straightway he was carried up through the clouds, with sound of trumpet, the nearest way to the Celestial Gate.
As for Christian, he was remanded to prison to wait for his trial at another time. But He that overrules all things so wrought it about that he escaped from his foes and went on his way. And as he went, the name of his dear friend was ever on his tongue—
"Sing, Faithful, sing,
And let thy name survive.
For though they killèd thee,
Thou art yet alive."
