126 LIFE AND CORRESPONDENCE OF THE \M'^5 



For the Declaration and form of interment, beginning " Forasmuch 

 as, &:c.," insert the following, viz. : 



Forasmuch as it hath pleased Almighty God, in his wise Providence, to take out of 

 this world the soul of our deceased brother (sister) lying now before us; We therefore 

 commit his (her) body to the ground, earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; (thus 

 at sea — to the deep to be turned into corruption) looking for the general resurrection 

 in the last day, and the life of the world to come, thro' our Lord Jesus Christ; at whose 

 second coming in glorious Majesty, to judge the world, the earth and the sea shall give 

 up their dead; and the corruptible bodies of those who sleep in him shall be changed, 

 and made like unto his own glorious body, according to the mighty working, whereby 

 he is able to subdue all things unto Himself. 



In the sentence "I heard a voice, &c.," insert "who" for "which."

 collect, leave out the words "as our hope is, this our brother doth." 

 For "them that," insert "those who."

 stands, insert the declaration of forgiveness which is appointed for the 

 communion service ; or either of the collects, which are taken from the

 crimes, and especially persons under sentence of death, being much
