Come with me, neighbor Pliable; there are such things to be had which I spoke of, and many more glories beside. If you believe not me, read here in this book; and for the truth of what is expressed therein, behold, all is confirmed by the blood of him that made it. Pli.

There shall be no more crying nor sorrow, for he that is owner of the place will wipe all tears from our eyes. Pli. And what company shall we have there? Chr. There we shall be with seraphims and cherubims; creatures that will dazzle your eyes to look on them.

Here, therefore, they wallowed for a time, being grievously bedaubed with the dirt; and Christian, because of the burden that was on his back, began to sink in the mire. PLI. Then said Pliable, Ah! neighbour Christian, where are you now? CHR. Truly, said Christian, I do not know.

The worst form of incompetence is perhaps that which allows a man to be competent without realising it, and, in criminal cases at least, this seems to be the normal attitude of the majority of our magistrates. We should read on this point a very curious pamphlet called Le Pli Professionnel , by Marcel Lestranger, a provincial magistrate. It is very pertinent to our subject.

I am glad you are persuaded to go along with me. Had even Obstinate himself but felt what I have felt of the powers and terrors of what is yet unseen, he would not thus lightly have given us the back. Pli. Come, neighbor Christian, since there are none but us two here, tell me now further, what the things are, and how to be enjoyed, whither we are going. Chr.

PLI. 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. CHR. I can better conceive of them with my mind, than 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? PLI. Well said.
