Pilgrim's Progress is an allegory of the spiritual journey.

I fell back in my chair. The pilgrims fell to their knees.

in ‘pilgrim’, from Latin ‘peregrinus’, the first ‘r’ is dissimilated to ‘l’.

A petty pharmaceutic firm conducted a pilot scheme among pilgrims with piercing eyes.

Possibly the point here is not the sheer quantity but the inner attitude of the Pilgrim: the starets wishes to test his obedience and readiness to fulfil an appointed task without deviation.
