	Story Behind the Song "Then I saw in my dream, that a little off the road, over against the silver-mine, stood Demas (gentleman-like) to call passengers to come and see; who said to Christian and his fellow, Ho! turn aside hither, and I will show you a thing. CHR. What thing so deserving as to turn us out of the way to see it? DEMAS. Here is a silver-mine, and some digging in it for treasure; if you will come, with a little pains you may richly provide for yourselves. HOPE. Then said Hopeful, let us go see. CHR. Not I, said Christian: I have heard of this place before now, and how many there have 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? [Hosea 9:6.] DEMAS. Not very dangerous, except to those that are careless; but withal he blushed as he spake. CHR. Then said Christian to Hopeful, Let us not stir a step, but still keep on our way. HOPE. I will warrant you, when By-ends comes up, if he hath the same invitation as we, he will turn in thither to see. CHR. No doubt thereof, for his principles lead him that way, and a hundred to one but he dies there. DEMAS. Then Demas called again, saying, But will you not come over and see? CHR. Then Christian roundly answered, saying, Demas, thou art an enemy to the right ways of the Lord of this way, and hast been already condemned for thine own turning aside, by one of his Majesty's judges, [2 Tim. 4:10]; and why seekest thou to bring us into the like condemnation? Besides, if we at all turn aside, our Lord the King will certainly hear thereof, and will there put us to shame, where we would stand with boldness before him. Demas cried again, that he also was one of their fraternity; and that if they would tarry a little, he also himself would walk with them. CHR. Then said Christian, What is thy name? Is it not the same by which I have called thee? DEMAS. Yes, my name is Demas; I am the son of Abraham. CHR. I know you; Gehazi was your great-grandfather, and Judas your father, and you have trod in their steps; it is but a devilish prank that thou usest: thy father was hanged for a traitor, and thou deservest no better reward. [2 Kings 5:20-27]; [Matt.26:14,15; 27:3-5]. Assure thyself, that when we come to the King, we will tell him of this thy behavior. Thus they went their way." The Pilgrim's Progress By John Bunyan Lyrics DEMAS: Come here Pilgrim I will show you A mine of silver for your taking. If you come from your way narrow, With little pain, you shall be rich CHRISTIAN: I won't go with you Demas I won't go with you, no! DEMAS: Danger? Don't fear. Only to those Careless ones, Careless ones. Listen to me I'm just like you Stay a while, then I'll go too.
