BOOK II - CHAPTER IV - POSTSCRIPT

I overlooked something. It appears that there was more of that utterance
than Mr. Peabody has quoted in the above paragraph. It will be found in
Mrs. Eddy's organ, the Christian Science Journal (January, 1901) and
reads as follows:

"It was not myself . . . which dictated Science and Health, with Key
to the Scriptures."

That is certainly clear enough. The words which I have removed from that
important sentence explain Who it was that did the dictating. It was
done by

"the divine power of Truth and Love, infinitely above me."

Certainly that is definite. At last, through her personal testimony, we
have a sure grip upon the following vital facts, and they settle the
authorship of Science and Health beyond peradventure:

1. Mrs. Eddy furnished "the ideas and the language."
2. God furnished the ideas and the language.

It is a great comfort to have the matter authoritatively settled.
