thereby to make a full end of this good Man, Chrisitans victory over Apollyon. Chriſtian nimbly reached out his hand for his Sword, and caught it, ſaying, Rejoyce not againſt me, O mine Enemy! when I fallal ſhall ariſe; and with that, gave him a deadly thruſt, which made him give back, as one that had received his mortal wound: Chriſtian perceiving that, made at him again, ſaying, Nay, in all theſe things we are more then Conquerours. And with that, Apollyon ſpred forth his Dragons wings, Jam 4. 7. and ſped him away, that Chriſtian for a ſeaſon ſaw him no more.
A brief relation of the Combat by the ſpectator In this combat no man can imagine, unleſs he had feen and heard as I did, what yelling, and hideous roaring Apollyon made all the time of the fight, he ſpake like a Dragon: and on the other ſide, what ſighs and groans bran: from Chriſtians heart. I never ſaw him all the while, give ſo much as one pleaſant look, till he perceived he had wounded Apollyon with his two edged Sword, then indeed he did ſmile, and look upward: but 'twas the dreadfulleſt fight that ever I ſaw.
