I saw then in my dream, that Hopeful looked back, and saw Ignorance, whom he had left behind, coming after. Then, said he come away, man: why do you stay behind? Come, how do you do? How stands it now between God and your soul?
Ignorance. I hope well, for I am full of good thoughts.
Christian. What good thoughts?
Ignorance. Why, I think of God and heaven.
Christian. So do the devils and damned souls.
Ignorance. But I desire them too.
Christian. So do many that never came there. The soul of the sluggard desireth and hath nothing.
Ignorance. Nay but I leave all for them.
Christian. I doubt that. Why dost thou think so?
Ignorance. My heart tells me so.
