At another time also, being called to <u>consecrate </u>Earl Addi's church, when he had performed that duty, he was entreated by the earl to go in to one of his servants, who lay dangerously ill, and having lost the use of all his limbs, seemed to be just at death's door; and indeed the coffin had been provided to bury him in. The earl urged his entreaties with tears, earnestly praying that he would go in and <u>pray </u>for him, because his life was of great consequence to him; and he believed that if the bishop would lay his hand upon him and give him his <u>blessing</u>, he would soon mend. The bishop went in, and saw him in a dying condition, and the coffin by his side, whilst all that were present were in tears. He said a prayer, blessed him, and on going out, as is the usual expression of comforters, said, "May you soon <u>recover</u>.

To consecrate means to declare something sacred, and to desecrate means to violate. If you pray for somebody, you want something good to happen to them, if you bless them, you ask God's protection for them. Blessing is a good thing, curse is a bad thing. To recover means to get well, and  to deteriorate means to become even sicker.

Does Bud Uses His Rules To Thrive Or Survive? Explain with rules and explain why
GarryVolchara [31]

Bud uses his rules for both, but it's really based on your opinion. I personally think some rules are meant for physically surviving, and some rules are meant for thriving. For example, the rule "Gone = dead!" (rules #28) really helps him for both. But the rule "Don't ever say something bad about someone you don't know - especially around a bunch of strangers." (rule #63) helps him survive. He could get physically hurt by someone, and he's more likely to if it's about someone he doesn't know and doesn't know what that person is capable of. When I did this with "Bud, not Buddy", I said it helps him thrive more, but it's really based on your opinion! Hope this helped. <3

Which of the following sentences can be revised to eliminate redundancies?
Anastaziya [24]

<u>Answer</u>:

Tthe sentence which can be revised to eliminate redundancies is

B: Juan was costumed in disguise when he entered the room.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Redundancy in a sentence refers to same data being used more than once in a sentence just by using a different word. It doesn’t make a sentence grammatically wrong, but more than one similar word seems unnecessary. They make the writing weak and not appealing. So, redundancy should be avoided while writing.

In the given sentences, Juan was costumed in disguise when he entered the room has redundancy. “In disguise” means when one is dressed differently or has made a different appearance. So, given sentence can be written as “Juan was disguised when he entered the room”. Writing “costumed in disguise” makes the sentence redundant.
