The Book of Common Prayer of 1662 is the old and well-loved prayer book of the Church of England - and one of the classic English texts; its prayers and expressions have helped to mold the English language into what it is today. Such phrases as 'with this ring I thee wed' and 'in sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life' have become familiar words with which we mark events in our lives.
