[211] It is noteworthy that in the collects in the English Prayer-Book, and indeed in its public formularies generally (outside the Funeral Service, and that for the Visitation of the Sick), there are but two places in which the note of the "world passeth away" is very prominently struck, viz., the Collect for the Fourth Sunday after Easter, and one portion of the prayer for "The Church Militant." One of the most wholesome and beautiful expressions of the salutary convictions arising from Christian perception of this melancholy truth is to be found in Dr. Johnson's "Prayer for the Last Day in the Year," as given in Mr. Stobart's _Daily Services for Christian Households_, pp. 99, 100. [212] The old "Memento Mori" timepiece of Mary, Queen of Scots, is a watch in the interior of a death's-head, which opens to disclose it. Surely not a symbol likely to make any soul happier or better! SECTION IV. GREEK. LATIN. Παιδια, εσχατη ωρα Filioli, novissima εστιν· και καθως ηκουσατε hora est: et sicut audistis ὁτι ὁ αντιχριστος quia antichristus ερχεται, και νυν αντιχριστοι venit, nunc autem antichristi πολλοι γεγονασιν· multi facti sunt, ὁθεν γινωσκομεν unde scimus quia ὁτι εσχατη ὡρα εστιν. novissima hora est. Εξ ἡμων εξηλθαν, αλλ' Ex nobis prodierunt, ουκ ησαν εξ ἡμων. ει sed non erant ex nobis, γαρ εξ ἡμων ησαν, nam si fuissent ex μεμενηκεισαν αν μεθ' nobis, permansissent ἡμων· αλλ' ἱνα φανερωθωσιν utique nobiscum; sed ὁτι ουκ εισιν ut manifesti sint quoniam παντες εξ ἡμων. Και non sunt omnes ὑμεις χρισμα εχετε απο ex nobis. Sed vos του αγιου, και οιδατε unctionem habetis a παντα. ουκ εγραψα Sancto, et nostis omnia. ὑμιν, ὁτι ουκ οιδατε Non scripsi vobis quasi την αληθειαν, αλλ' ὁτι ignorantibus veritatem, οιδατε αυτην, και ὁτι sed quasi scientibus παν ψευδος εκ της eam, et quoniam omne αληθειας ουκ εστιν. Τις mendacium ex veritate εστιν ὁ ψευστης, ει non est. Quis est mendax, μη ὁ αρνουμενος ὁτι nisi qui negat Ιησους ουκ εστιν ὁ quoniam Iesus non est Χριστος; ουτος εστιν Christus? Hic est ὁ αντιχριστος, ὁ αρνουμενος antichristus, qui negat τον πατερα και Patrem et Filium. τον υιον. πας ὁ αρνουμενος Omnis qui negat Filium τον υιον, ουδε nec Patrem habet: qui τον πατερα εχει. ὁ confitetur Filium, et ὁμολογων τον υιον και Patrem habet. Vos τον πατερα εχει. Ὑμεις quod audistis ab initio, ὁ ηκουσατε απ' αρχης, in vobis permaneat. εν ὑμιν μενετω.
