English (original)

the Wall, I thought, was the Word

— John Bunyan

See that your cause be good, else Christ will not undertake it.

here was only room for Body and Soul, but not for Body and Soul, and Sin

and the Gap which was in this Wall, I thought was Jesus Christ

forasmuch as the Passage was wonderful narrow

none could enter into Life, but those that were in downright earnest

When a man's cause is good, it will sufficiently plead for itself, yea, and for its master too.
