Hope. Then said Hopeful, Let us go see. 318

Chr. Not I, said Christian, I have heard of this place before now; and how many have there been slain; and besides that, treasure is a snare to those that seek it; for it hindereth them in their pilgrimage. Then Christian called to Demas, saying, Is not the place dangerous? Hath it not hindered many in their pilgrimage? 319

Demas. Not very dangerous, except to those that are careless (but withal, he blushed as he spake).
