A Classic Romance

ARTHUR COLTON
So they went up to the Mountains, to behold the Gardens, and Orchards, the Vineyards, and Fountains of water…. Now there was on the tops of these Mountains, Shepherds feeding their flocks, and they stood by the high-way side. The Pilgrims therefore went to them, and leaning upon their staves, (as is common with weary Pilgrims, when they stand to talk with any by the way,) they asked, Whose delectable Mountains are these?… When the Shepherds perceived that they were way-faring men, they also put questions to them, as, Whence came you? and, How got you into the way? and, By what means have you so persevered therein?… Then said the Shepherds one to another, Let us here shew to the Pilgrims the Gates of the Coelestial City, if they have skill to look through our Perspective Glass…. Then they essayed to look, but… they could not look steadily through the Glass; yet they thought they saw something like the Gate.
