《天路历程Pilgrim》

HOPE. I am sorry that I was so foolish, and am made to wonder that I am not now as Lot’ s wife; for wherein was the difference betwixt her sin and mine? She only looked back, and I had a desire to go see. Let God’ s goodness be praised; and let me be ashamed that ever such a thing should be in mine heart. CHRIS. Let us take notice of what we see here, for our help for time to come. This woman escaped one judgment, for she fell not by the destruction of Sodom; yet she was destroyed by another, as we see: she is turned into a pillar of salt.
