Which of these quotes from The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan contains an underlying allegory representing humanity’s resista
nce to change and lack of will?
So I saw in my dream that the man began to run. Now, he had not run far from his own door, but his wife and children, perceiving it, began to cry after him to return.
The name of the one was Obstinate and the name of the other Pliable. Now, by this time, the man was got a good distance from them; but, however, they were resolved to pursue him, which they did, and in a little time they overtook him.
Then said the man, Neighbours, wherefore are ye come?
I see it to be so; and, dying there, sooner or later, you will sink lower than the grave, into a place that burns with fire and brimstone: be content, good neighbours, and go along with me.
