VALIANT.-No; they seemed but as many nothings to me.
GREAT HEART.-How came that about? VALIANT.-Why, I still believed what Mr. Tell-true had said, and that carried me beyond them all.
GREAT-HEART.-Then this was your victory, even your faith.
VALIANT.-It was so. I believed, and there fore came out, got into the way, fought all that set themselves against me, and, by believing, am come to this place.
After this it was noised abroad that Mr. Valiant-for-Truth was taken with a summons by the same post as the other; and had this for a token that the summons was true: "That his pitcher was broken at the fountain." When he understood it, he called to his friends, and told them of it. Then said he, "I am going to my father's; and though with great difficulty I am got thither, yet now I do not repent me of all the trouble I had been at to arrive where I am. My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and
skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that I have fought His battles who now will be my rewarder." When the day that he must go hence was come, many accompanied him to the riverside. . . . So he passed over, and all the trumpets scunded for him on the other side.
