Pilgrim's Progress §122: Then Prudence thought good to ask him a few questions, and desired his answer to them.

Then Prudence thought good to ask him a few questions, and desired his answer to them. PRUD. Do you not think sometimes of the country from whence you came? Christian's thoughts of his native country CHR. Yes, but with much shame and detestation: "Truly, if I had been mindful of that country from whence I came out, I might have had opportunity to have returned; but now I desire a better country, that is, an heavenly." PRUD. Do you not yet bear away with you some of the things that then you were conversant withal? CHR. Yes, but greatly against my will; especially my inward and carnal cogitations, with which all my countrymen, as well as myself, were delighted; but now all those things are my grief; and might I but choose mine own things, Christian's choice I would choose never to think of those things more; but when I would be doing of that which is best, that which is worst is with me.
