Then I saw in my Dream, that _Christian_ was as in a muse a while. To whom also _Hopeful_ added this word, _Be of good cheer, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole_; and with that _Christian_ brake out with a loud voice, Oh I see him again, and he tells me, _When thou passest through the Waters, I will be with thee; and through the Rivers, they shall not overflow thee_. Then they both took courage, and the Enemy was after that as still as a stone untill they were gone over. _Christian_ therefore presently found ground to stand upon, and so it followed that the rest of the River was but shallow. Thus they got over. Now upon the bank of the River on the other side, they saw the two shining men again, who there waited for them; wherefore being come out of the River, they saluted them saying, _We are ministring Spirits, sent forth to minister for those that shall be heirs of salvation._ Thus they went along towards the Gate. Now you must note that the City stood upon a mighty Hill, but the Pilgrims went up that Hill with ease because they had these two men to lead them up by the arms; also they had left their Mortal Garments behind them in the River, for though they went in with them, they came out without them. They therefore went up here with much agility and speed, though the foundation upon which the City was framed was higher than the Clouds. They therefore went up through the Regions of the Air, sweetly talking as they went, being comforted, because they safely got over the River, and had such glorious Companions to attend them.
