 * 1678 — John Bunyan. The Pilgrim's Progress.
 * Then I saw in my dream that the Shining Men bid them call at the gate; the which, when they did, some looked from above over the gate, to wit, Enoch, Moses, and Elijah, &c., to whom it was said, These pilgrims are come from the City of Destruction, for the love that they bear to the King of this place; and then the Pilgrims gave in unto them each man his certificate, which they had received in the beginning; those, therefore, were carried in to the King, who, when he had read them, said, Where are the men?
 * Then they asked him for his certificate, that they might go in and show it to the King; so he fumbled in his bosom for one, and found none.
