Gen 40:16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also [was] in my dream, and, behold, [I had] three white baskets on my head:

But when they must practise duty, or bear the cross, they depart "sad"; Mar 10:22 and Christ may keep his heaven to himself, if it be had on no other conditions.
