Swedish term or phrase: Den Himmelfte Loparen Beftrifning pa en Mennifta fom ftrafmar efter himmelen och
This is an antique book which I believe is Swedish text and maybe John Bunyon as the author listed is Johan Bunian. Published 1850. I am finding it difficult to totally identify this book. Also a page in the back with the title of En Chriftens Dageliga Bon with a poem or something that looks like a poem. Thanks for any help that you can give me in this matter. Nancy

English translation:John Bunyan it is!!
Explanation:
Nancy,
my wife and I think that this is probably The Heavenly Footman by John Bunyan. This is written in an old style. We GUESS that the correct modern Swedish would read, "Den Himmelska Löparen. Beskrivningen av en menniska som strävar efter himmelen."
The flyleaf to John Bunyans book reads,
"The Heavenly Footman or,
A description of the man that gets to Heaven..........
The page at the back is entitled,
"A Christians daily prayer."
