NOTES AND QUERIES. [12 s. v. AUG., im

CHURCH OF EVGLAND MARRIAGE SERVICE. In Scott's Fortunes of Nigel ' he puts into the mouth of the villain, Lord Dalgarno, a satirical allusion to " that happy portion of the Prayer Book which begins with ' dearly beloved ' and ends with ' amaze- ment ' " (chap, xxxii.). Is this Scott's own, or is it a current bit of satire ? I notice that Hardy uses it in his ' Desperate Remedies ' : " Yes, matrimony do begin ' dearly beloved ' and ends wi' ' amazement,' as the Prayer Book says " (chap. viii. 3).
