Baldwin in Cyprus just as the British and French served their ultimatum...
...Harding insists that everything Bunyan wrote is grist for the analyst, and especially his slips of the pen. since they are not accidents, but the certain results of subconscious desires.

This means, says Analyst Harding, that Bunyan was subconsciously rebellious against the strait and narrow path of Puritanism, perhaps even the very practice of Christianity itself...
