These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but
having seen them afar Off, and were persuaded of them, and
embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pil-
grims on the earth. They say such things declare plainly that
they seek a country. And truly if they had been mindful of that
country from whence they came, they might have had oppor-
tunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country.

( Hebrews, 2: 13-16)

Tous princes princesses gens habitans sur la terre en laquelle
comme dit sainct paul lapostre ilz nont point de demeure per-
manente mais ilz sont tous et toutes pelerins pelerines.

( Deguilleville, Le Pèlerinage de la vie humaine tresutile et
puffitable pour cognoistre soymesmes)

Tous les bons et fideles chrestiens ne sont ils pas en ce monde ici
passagers et pellerins? Nostra conversatio in coelis est. Ce dit S.
Paul, et ailleurs: Non habemus hic manentem civitatem, sed
futuram inquirimus.

( Dublioul, Le Voyage de Hierusalem)
