How Britain Crowned Ancient Kings
PROCESSION OF EDWARD VI-This reproduction of an ancient engraving shows the procession of Edward VI, who acceded to Britain's throne in 1547, pasting through Cheapside from the Tower to his coronation. The King, on a white horse, at the left of the monument, is under a canopy carried by four bare-headed riders. One of the two dark-robed figures in centre is probably the Arch- bishop of Canterbury. Craftsmen in their liveries line the windows.
