Mr. Greatheart points out to the pilgrims the bones of one Heedless who was "foolishly venturesome.
Bunyan experienced the Scriptures almost as physical presences. The Bible, he says, "was so fresh,...that I was as if it talked to me."
Mr. Greatheart has walked with me as well, and I am a Pilgrim indeed. Yet the bones of one Heedless are not having the freak-out effect I desire...O LORD! Long have I been a venturesome fool - Forgive me, and awaken your Word with the dawning, to meet with me ere the sun illuminates all the day's lust alluring alleys and pathways.
May I venture to wayfare in your WORD!
