14:22
There also sat a man at a little distance from the door , at a table-side , with a book and his inkhorn before him , to take the name of him that should enter therein ; he saw also , that in the doorway stood many men in armour to keep it , being resolved to do the men that would enter what hurt and mischief they could . Now was Christian somewhat in amaze . At last , when every man started back for fear of the armed men , Christian saw a man of a very stout countenance come up to the man that sat there to write , saying , Set down my name , Sir : the which when he had done , he saw the man draw his sword , and put a helmet upon his head , and rush toward the door upon the armed men , who laid upon him with deadly force ; but the man , not at all discouraged , fell to cutting and hacking most fiercely . So after he had received and given many wounds to those that attempted to keep him out , he cut his way through them all -LSB- Acts 14:22 -RSB- , and pressed forward into the palace , at which there was a pleasant voice heard from those that were within , even of those that walked upon the top of the palace , saying -- `` Come in , come in ; Eternal glory thou shalt win . '' So he went in , and was clothed with such garments as they . Then Christian smiled and said ; I think verily I know the meaning of this . -LCB- 84 -RCB- Now , said Christian , let me go hence .
