VOL. VIII. Page 207. To the query put by Boswell to Johnson
"Is not the expression in the burial service-in the sure and certain
hope of a blessed resurrection'-too strong to be used indiscriminately?
the following note ought to have been subjoined :-

THE END.

Mr. Boswell, quoting from memory, has interpolated the word "blessed.”
The words of the Liturgy are, "in sure and certain hope of the resur-
rection," &c. &c. L'Estrange, in his "Alliance of Divine Offices,"
p.:302., observes, "these words import the faith of the congregation then
present in the article of the resurrection. The plural, our vile bodies,'
excludes the restraint to a singular number." The reformed liturgies
have uniformly employed the same cautious language. In one of the
prayers used in the burial service, in the first book of Edward VI., the
following passage occurs: "We give thee hearty thanks for this, thy
servant, whom thou hast delivered, &c. &c. And, as we trust, hast brought
his soul into sure consolation of rest."- MARKLAND.
