Doctrine and Covenants D&C 20:73
"Having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen."
Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 11:25
"Having authority given me of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen."

Shared words: of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen

The two formulas differ in exactly one clause: 'Having been commissioned of Jesus Christ' against 'Having authority given me of Jesus Christ'. Everything from 'I baptize you' to 'Amen.' is identical. The run 'in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost' stands at four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: these two, D&C 68:8, and Matthew 28:19 — disclosed, not paired.
