Sep 13– From The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan (1678)

 Pilgrim

Sep 13– From The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan (1678)

Summary: The Pilgrim starts his quest.

Commentary: Another one of Elliot's Chapter 1 after Chapter X choices. It's an okay beginning, I guess. Kind of a let down after the sword fight with Satan. Some of the allegory (his name is Christian, the village is Mortality, someone else's name is Civility) is a bit on the nose.
