And no monument was erected to the memory of her who was the last queen of the old faith to be buried in the Abbey.
CHAPTER XI  IN THE CHAPEL OF HENRY VII.
On November 17, 1558, Mary died, and that very day Parliament met in old Westminster Palace "to proclaim without further halt of time the Lady Elizabeth as queen of this realm." Shouts of "God save Queen Elizabeth" resounded through the walls, and outside the cry "Long live our Queen Elizabeth" was taken up with heartfelt intensity by the people, who believed, and not in vain, that with her their deliverance had come. She had suffered, they had suffered, both in the same great cause, and now together they were standing in the dawn of a day which promised to be fair and radiant. , which they hated passionately, as Englishmen have ever been wont to hate foreign interference, had received its death-blow, for here was a queen, "born mere English, here among us, and therefore most natural to us," who understood them, and whom they could freely trust. No wonder that there were no signs of mourning for the dead queen, only irrepressible joy and relief at the accession of the new sovereign they were prepared to love so loyally. But no wonder either that the echoes of the cheers which reached the Abbey fell on some hearts which could not respond to them. To Fakenham, with his handful of monks, those shouts of joy were as a death-knell, though the Abbot himself may have had some hopes that Elizabeth would remember how he had pleaded with Mary for her freedom  [url=http://course.cafeblog.hu/2017/08/28/為什麼喝水的減肥效果好/][color=#0F0F0F]The entire[/color][/url][url=http://blog.dwnews.com/post-969322.html][color=#0F0F0F] room was[/color][/url][url=https://plaza.rakuten.co.jp/hardwares/diary/201708280000/][color=#0F0F0F] faced[/color][/url][url=http://www.beautyexp.com/articles/告訴你如何找到減肥捷徑/][color=#0F0F0F] with[/color][/url][url=http://iguang.tw/u/4416191/article/869631.html][color=#0F0F0F] polished [/color][/url][url=http://www.iswii.net/iswii/showpost/1508996][color=#0F0F0F]granite.[/color][/url].

The coronation festivities, which began January 15, put London in a delirium of rejoicings, and though the royal exchequer was so low that there was no money available for costly preparations, the people more than compensated for this by the pageants and decorations they organised out of the fulness of their hearts. "The queen," says an officer who followed the procession, "as she entered the city was received with prayers, welcomings, cries and tender words, with all those signs which argue the earnest love of subjects towards their sovereign. She, by holding up her hands and glad countenance to such as stood afar off, and most tender language to those that stood near, showed herself no less thankful to receive the people's goodwill than they to offer it, and to such as bade 'God save her Grace,' she said in return, 'God save you all,' so that the people were wonderfully transported at the loving answers and gestures of the queen."
