The second or third day your boy finds himself somewhere between Hawes and Brough, in the midst of the moors, at sunset. It is stony ground, and boggy; he cannot go one foot further that night. Down he lies, to sleep, on Wharnside, where best he may, gathering a few of the stones together to put under his head ; — so wild the place is, he cannot get anything but stones. And there, lying under the broad night, he has a dream ; and he sees a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reaches t...o heaven, and the angels of God are ascending and descending upon it. And when he wakes out of his sleep, he says, "How dreadful is this place ; surely, this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven." This place, observe ; not this church ; not this city ; not this stone, even, which he puts up for a memorial — the piece of flint on which his head has lain. But this ^/act/ this windy slope of Wharn- side ; this moorland hollow, torrent-bitten, snow-blighted ; this any place where God lets down the ladder.
