Tbs teuiark may be esempli6cd by one or two
quotations. In Matthew, 26c. 28y. it is SAID,
" rHs is NY blood Of the new testament, which
Is she'd for many, for the remission Of sins"-
which Mr. Dickinson thus renders: - This re-
presents my blood Of The new covenant, which is
poured out Tor many, in relation to the removal
Of sins" Asan-l.uAe /: 1910: "And Ma.
~ said my soul doth magnify the Lord, and my
soul hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For he
hath regarded the low estate ot his handn,aiden;
'O' behold, from hsnceiOrth all generations shall
cali NE blessed. For he that is mighty hath done
" me great doinss, aud holy Is his name"-
winch Mr. Dickinson thus renders: Z" And Ma.
ry declared, Ny soul celebrates the praises of

''"NF' because he has kindly viewed the humble
situation Of bis handmaiden; for behold, from

quotations, to that which is put forth by Mr..
