When the coffin WAS placed in the chancel, the
following anthems, taken from the Thirty ninth and
Ninetieth Psalms, were recited;-
Lord let me know my end and the number of my
days that may be certified how long have to live.
Behold thou hast made my days As it were span
long, and mine age even as nothing respect thee
and verify every man living is altogether vanity.
For man walketh in n vain shadow, and dsquieteth
himself in vain; he heapeth up riches, and cannot tell
who shall gather them
And now, Lord, what is my hope' Truly my hope is
even in thee.
Deliver me from all mine offences, and make me not
rebuke unto the foolish.
When thou with rcbukes dost chasten man for sin,
thou makest his beauty to consume away, like as 1t
were moth freting garment every therefore is
but vanity.
Hear my prayer Lord and with thine ears consider
my calling: hold not thy peace at my tears:
For am stranger with thee, and sojourner, all
my fathers we're.
o spare me little that may recover my strength,
before go hence, and be no more SEEN
Lord thou hast been our refuge, from one generation
to another
Before the mountains brought forth or ever the
earth and the world were made, thou art God from ever
lasting and world without end.
Thou turnest man to Destruction again thou sayest,
Gene ngain We children Of men.
For thousand years in thy sight but as yester-
day; seeing that is past as watch in the night.
As soon as thou scatterest them they even as
slice p; and fade away suddenly like the grass.
In the morning it is green and groweth up; but in the
evening it Is cut down. dried up, and withered.
For we consume away in thy displeasure; and are
afraid at thy wrathful indignation
Thou hast set misdeeds before thee and secret
sins in the light of thy conntenance.
For when thou art angry, all our days arc gone: we
bring our years to end, It were tale that is told
The days of age threcscore years and ten and
though men be strong that they to fourscore
years yet is their strength then but labor and SORROW
SO soon rasse'h it away and We are gone.
20 teach us to number our days, that we may apply
our hearts unto wisdom.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son, and to the
Holy Ghost
AS it In the beginning, is now. and ever shall be-
world without end Amen.
After the anthem, the following lesson was iead
by the miristers:-
Now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the
rstruits of them that slept Tor since By man came
DEATH by also the resurrection Of the dead
For as in Adam all die, even SO in Christ shall all BE-
then that sre cr at his
coming. Then cometh the end when he shall have de-
vered up the kingdom to God, even the Father when
he shall have put down all rule, and all authority and
power For he must reign till he hath put all enemies
under his feet The last enemy that shall be destroyed
But when he saith, all things put under him, it is
manifest that he is excepted which did put all things
him. then shall the Son also himself be subject unto Him
that Put all things under him, that God may be all in
ALL Else what shall they do which are baptized for the
dead if the dead rise not at air Why they then
baptized for the deadY and why stand we in jeopardy
every hour protest by your rejoicing, which have
ner of men pave fought with beasts at Ephesus, what
adyantagetNt me- il the dead rise nos let us eat and
drink, for die. Be not deceived evil com
munications corrupt good manners. Awake to right
eousness, and sin not; for some have not the know
ledge of God, Ispeak this to your shame But some
what body do they Gomez Thou fool that which thou
sowest is not quickened except 1t die. And that
which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that
shall be- but bare grain, 1t chance Of wheat Of
some other grain But God giveth it body 1t bath
pleased him. and to every seed its body All flesh
is not the same flesh but there is kind Of flesh of
men, another flesh Of beasts another Of fishes, and
Their of birds There also celestial bodies and bodies
terrestrial but the glory OF the celestial one and the
glory of the terrestrial is another There is glory of
the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another
glory of the stars for one star dereh from another
1t Is sown in corruption it is raised in interruption II is
sown in dshonor; it is raised in glory it is sown in
body; il is raised spiritual body There is natural
body, and there is spiritual body And SO it is written
The first man, ADAM was made living soul; the last
Adam was made quckenng spirit. Howbcit, that was
not first which spiritual but that which natural and
afterwards that which is spiritual The first Of the
earth earthly the second man is the Lord from Heaven
As is the Earthly such they that earthly and
Is the heavenly such they also that heavenly

brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the king
dom Of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorrup
sleep, but we shall all be changed in moment, in the
twnkling Of eye at the last trump for the trumpet
shall sound and the dead shall be raised incorruptibe
and shall be changed For this corruptble must put
on interruption and this mortal must put immorta
lity So when this corruptibe shall have put on incor
ruption and this mortal shall have put on immortality
then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written
Death is swallowed up in victory DEATH where is thy
stng' grave, where Is thy victory The sting OF death
is sim and the strength Of is the law But thanks
be to God which gveth the victory through Lord
sesus Christ Therefore my beloved brethren be ys
the Lord fcrasmuch as ye know that your labor is not
In vain in the Lord.
At the conclusion Of TIE foregoing lesson the coffin
Was borne out Of the church to the grave and while
The process Of burial Was going ON Rev. Dr.. Berian
recited the following =
