This is a great hour. It has been a wonderful picture. Are we presumptu ous if we see in it the judgment of Higher Power?
On the previous occa sions, when the successive stages of this drama have been unrolled in your lord ships' House, no comment, bas been pass ed from either of these beaches on this astonishing series of events. Even now I have no intention of analysing their causes, tracing their history, or attempt ing to award to the victors the praise which is their due. Those words will more appropriately fall from other lips To-morrow we understand that the the Address which Sovereign, in reply we are devoting to him thig afternoon will speak in the Chamber adjoining to this to the member, of both Houses the Legislature, to the people of this country, and of his Dominions through out the world, and will tell the tale. We shall hear from him of the skill and valour, the endurance and the heroism, that have brought about this great de liverance On a later occasion also when the new Parliament is assembled and when no doubt there may be expect ed a large attendance on the benches of both Houses, & better opportunity will present itself of offering the formal thanks of Parliament to those who have deserved so well.

Every soldier upon whose hastily dug grave is planted pathetic little wooden crosses that fringe the battle fields in France and Flanders and in Italy, and all the other theatres of war, has helped to win the war for 18 We honour those who have thus died, and we honour the fathers and mothers who gave them to this death. Wo ask leave to present this Address to the King, not merely because he is the official head of the State, but because in a peculiar degree during the last four and a half years he has been the symbol and the spokesman of his fellow-subjects in all parts of the world. By constant self- sacrifice, by inexhaustible energy, by un Isiling sympathy with their people, the King and Queen have endeared them selves to millions of our race in every part of the universe. They have known where to encourage and where to solace and condole. What is the result? Where other thrones are tottering the British throne stands secure. (Cheers.) Where institutions which seemed to defy assault have collapsed almost in an hour, the British monarchy has driven fresh roots into the hearts and affections of the people, and has acquired a new lease of vitality and influence. (Hear, hear.)
