THE SEARCHLIGHT a r The final step in crowning is, of course, the placing of St. Edward ' s crown upon the Queen ' s head. The Archbishop, after layir. the crown on the altar, will place it on the Queen ' s hes.d °nd when the shouts of God save the Queen have died away, will say, God crown you with a crown of glory and righteousness. r 1 At this same moment the guns on the Tower of London will boom. In Hyde Park and at Windsor Castle a 41 : un salute will announce the crowning to the crowds gathered in these places. Then the Archbishop will kneel before the Queen, kiss her hand and repeat his promises to be faithful and true to her . The second person to pay homage to the newly crowned Queen will be Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, followed by the Queen ' s uncle, the Duke of Gloucester and her young cousin, the Duke of Kent. Next the senior Peer of each :roup will pay his homage by touching the crown to show his willingness to support it with all his power. When the ceremony of homage has ended, drums will beat, trumpets will sound and all the people will shout, God save Queen Elizabeth, Long live Queen Elizabeth, Kay the Queen live forever. This will be followed by the singina of the hymn All people that on earth do dwell, Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; Him serve with fear, his praise forth tell, Come ye befrre him and rejoice.
