"Then said the Interpreter (to Christian), Come in;

I will show thee that which will be profitable to thee.

So he commanded his man to light the candle, and

bid Christian follow him.  So he had him into a

private room, and bid his man open a door; the which,

when he had done, Christian saw the picture of a very

grave person hang up against the wall; and this was 

the fashion of it:

                        it had eyes lifted up to heaven,

                                                            the best books in its hand,

                                                            the law of truth was written upon its lips

                                                            the world was behind its back;

                                                             it stood as if it pleaded with men,

                                                             and a crown of gold did hang over its head."
