Again, the pilgrim is doing what the race has done constantly for many thousands of years; and to any one with a catholic mind (no matter what his creed) this ought to be a tremendous argument.

All these are but different versions of the Pilgrim' s Progress: and if this little book dares to follow the parable, it is because a truth so universal covers the small equally with the great.
