{Verse 152}

A book by John Bunyan about his journey to the Celestial City.
{Verse 152}

In this combat no man can imagine, unless he had seen and heard as I did, what yelling and hideous roaring Apollyon made all the time of the fight—​he spake like a dragon; and, on the other side, what sighs and groans burst from Christian’s heart. I never saw him all the while give so much as one pleasant look, till he perceived he had wounded Apollyon with his two-edged sword; then, indeed, he did smile, and look upward; but it was the dreadfullest sight that ever I saw.

A more unequal match can hardly be,--CHRISTIAN must fight an Angel; but you see,

The valiant man by handling Sword and Shield,

 Doth make him, tho' a Dragon, quit the field.
