He took for his text Proverbs,
Chapter XVI. 18th verse. For the
throne is established by righteous
ness" The aged prelate said in part:

the great and gracious personality
whom we have lost. The end of her
long reign marked an epoch which
gave rise to gratitude, sorrow and
hope to gracious memories and great
anticipatlonS. Ine years brought

violence of waves, but never once
was there any loss of governance,
never any alienation of the hearts of
her people.
"AIl are pleased that the new king
has determined to call himself after
the greatest of his ancestors, the pure
and clean. He has greatly grown;
and along the lines of his policy we
now seek sevenfold blessing from
the seventh Edward"
The benediction was pronounced by
the bishop Of Winchester.
