The church-butcher was indeed a worse terror to him than Apollyon had been to Christian, for it seemed to his faithlessness that not even the weapon of All-prayer was equal to his discomfiture; nothing could render him harmless but the payment of his bill.
How mean it would sound what a reproach to the cause, that the congregational minister had run up a bill with a church-butcher which he was unable to pay! It was the shame the shame he could not bear! Ought he to have been subjected to it?
He could not tell which would triumph the more the church-butcher over dissent, or the chapel-butcher over the church-butcher, and the pastor who had rebuked him for dishonesty! His very soul was disquieted within him. He rose at last with a tear trickling down his cheek, and walked to and fro in his garden. Things went on nevertheless as if all was right with the world.
