THE HOLY SACRAMENT.

After the Homage, the two Bishops, who had read the
Epistle and Gospel, received from the Altar, by the hands of the
Archbishop, tbte Patina and Chalice, which they carried into
St. Edward's Chapel, and brought from thence the Bread upon
the Patina and the Wine in the Chalice. His Majesty then de-
scended from the Throne, and went to the Attar, where, raking
off his Crown, his Majesty delivered it to the Lord Great Cham-
berlain to hold. Then the Bishops delliered the Patina and
Chalice into the King's hands; and his Majesty delivered them,
to the Archbishop, who reverently placed the same upon the
Altar, covering them with a fair linen cloth. His Majesty then
received the Sacrament, the Archbishop administering the Bread
and the Dean of Westminster the Cup.
The Choir then sang the last Anthem, a Biased be Am, Lord
God e head," &c. and, at the conclusion, the trumpets sounded,
the drums beat, and, amidst the acclamations of the assembly,
the King pet on his Crown, and, taking the two Sceptres in his
Sands, again ascended the Throne, and sat there, supported and
attended as before, until the conclusion of the Post-Communion
Service and the Blessing.

After this his Majesty, attended as before, descended into the
arca, and passed through the door on the south side of the Altar,
into St. Edward's Chapel; and the Noblemen who had carried
the Rekalia received .them from the Dean of Westminster as
they passed by the Altar.
The King being come into the Chapel, and standing before
the Altar, delivered the Sceptres to the Archbishop, who laid
them upon the Altar. The rest of the Regalia were delivered
to the Dean, to be by him laid also en the Altar.
The King was then disrobed of his Royal Robe of State, and
arrayed in his Royal Robe of Purple Velvet, by the Deputy
Lord Great Chamberlain.
The Archbishop delivered the Sceptre with the Cross into his
right band, and the Orb into his left. The Dean delivered the
Sceptre with the Dove to the Nobleman who bad before
carried it.

As soon as the Bing was gone into It. Edward's Chapel, the
Officers of Arms began to call over and arrange the Procession
for the return to Westminster MU.
