and mothers Of kings are buried there,
the collins of the kings lying on one
side, those Of the queens on the other.
After lying in state for several days
In the throneroom In Madrid an enor-
nous procession is formed, accompany
ing the body to the Escurial. A halt
is made on the way, and the corpse
rests there for one night.
In the morning the lord high cham

doors are never opened except to ad-
NIT a royal parsonage, dead or alive.
When the casket containing the re-

the chamberlain unlocks 1t and, kneel-

"Senor! Senior! Senior"
After solemn pause he cries again:

He then locks the coffin, gives the
key to the prior and, taking his staff
