THE RECOGNITION.
Upon the conclusion of the Anthem, the Archbishop of
Canterbury advanced from his Station at the South East Pil-
lar. and, together with the Lord Chancellor, the Lord Great
Chamberlain, the Lord lli<gh Constable, and the Earl Mar-
shal, preceded by Deputy Garter, moved to the East side of
the theatre, where the Archbishop made the recognition, thus:
—"Sirs, I here present unto you QUEEN VICTuRIA, the un-
doubted Queen of this realm ; wherefore all you who are
come this day to co your Homage, are you willing to do the
same?" and repeated the same at the south, west, and north
sides of the theatre; during which time her Majesty stood
up by her chair, and turned towards the people on the side
at which the recognition was made; the people replying to
each demand with loud and repeated acclamations of "God
save Queen Victoria;" and, at the last recognition, the
trumpets sound and the drums beat. The bearers of the
regalia during the recognition remained standing about her
Majesty.

and the patina, were carried to and placed upon the altar
by the bishops who had borne them, who then retired to their
