A Brighter Day Begins with His Word.

Bunyan, John, 1628-1688 • SECTION 76

POSTSCRIPT

← Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners

IN this his pilgrimage, God blessed him with four children, one of which, named _Mary_, was blind, and died some years before; his other children were _Thomas_, _Joseph_, and _Sarah_; his wife _Elizabeth_ having lived to see him overcome his labour and sorrow, and pass from this life to receive the reward of his work, long survived him not; but in 1692 she died, to follow her faithful pilgrim from this world to the other, whither he was gone before her; whilst his works, which consist of sixty books, remain for the edifying of the reader, and praise of the author.

_Vale_.
