Her accession was greeted with an outbreak of joy by the Protestant population. But the supporters of her dead sister Mary 1 did not want a Protestant monarch. On hearing the news of the death, Elizabeth rushed to occupy the Tower of London. She even risked shooting London Bridge, such was her haste. (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/november-17th-anniversary-of-the-accession-of-queen-elizabeth-i\/\">my post of the accession of Queen Elizabeth I<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She consulted lawyers about the legal position. Elizabeth, and her sister Mary,  were declared bastards by two Succession Acts passed during  Henry VIII&#8217;s &#8216;troubled&#8217; married life.  The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Third_Succession_Act\">Third Succession Act<\/a> of 1543\/44, following Henry&#8217;s marriage to Katherine Parr, restored Mary and Elizabeth to the Royal line.  But it did not restore their  legitimacy.  Rather than tackle the complex legislation,  Sir <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nicholas_Bacon_(Lord_Keeper)\">Nicholas Bacon<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lord_Keeper_of_the_Great_Seal\">Lord Keeper of the Great Seal,<\/a> advised:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;the English laws have long since pronounced, that the Crown once worn quite taketh away all Defects whatsoever<\/em>&#8220;.  <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Coronation_of_Elizabeth_I#cite_note-5\">(Wikipedia)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which, when you think about it, basically legitimises any successful &#8216;coup&#8217;! And, from a legal perspective, she was still, arguably, illegitimate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Queen Elizabeth 1 Coronation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Her courtiers immediately began work on the Coronation, scheduled for January 15th 1559. In terms of Coronations, this was rushed. The precise date was, in fact, chosen by the Royal Astrologer. John Dee, a famous mathematician and credulous astrologer,. He found a date that the celestial bodies deemed propitious. But it needed to be sooner rather than later because Elizabeth&#8217;s position was so insecure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Queen Elizabeth 1 Coronation Procession<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Coronation began with a procession from the Whitehall Palace in Westminster. Then back to the Tower of London for the Vigil.  Followed by a Royal Procession through the City of London to Westminster Abbey for the Coronation service. After the Coronation, there was the traditional Coronation Banquet at Westminster Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vigil Procession was on the Thames where she was escorted to the Tower by &#8216;ships, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Galley\">galleys<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Brigantine\">brigantines<\/a>&#8216; sumptuously decorated.  The Royal Entry consisted of 5 Pageants and 11 Triumphal Arches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first pageant showed the Queen\u2019s descent from Henry VII and his marriage to Elizabeth of York. This marriage effectively ended the Wars of the Roses by linking the House of York and the House of Lancaster. The pageant also emphasised her &#8216;Englishness&#8217; as opposed to the Spanish affiliations of Mary. The second pageant demonstrated that the Queen would rule by the four virtues of True Religion, Love of Subjects, Wisdom and Justice.  At the same time she was shown trampling on Superstition, Ignorance and other vices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Procession at Cheapside<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The third pageant, at the upper end of Cheapside near the Guildhall, provided the opportunity for the City to give Elizabeth a handsome present.  This was a  crimson purse with 1000 marks of gold, showing the closeness of the City and the Crown. The fourth pageant, contrasted a decaying country during the time of Mary with a thriving one under Elizabeth. It featured the figure of Truth, who was carrying a Bible written in English and entitled &#8216;the Word of Truth&#8217;. The Bible was lowered on a silken thread to the Queen.  The Queen kissed it and laid it on her breast to the cheers of the crowd. She promised to read it diligently. The final pageant was Elizabeth portrayed as Deborah, the Old Testament prophet. Deborah rescued  Israel and ruled for 40 years. So she was an ideal role model for Elizabeth.

Important passages were read both in Latin and in English.  The Queen added to the Coronation Oath the promise that she would rule according to the:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> &#8216;true profession of the Gospel established in this Kingdom.&#8217; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This showed the path Queen Elizabeth was going to take.  She would introduce innovation gradually into tradition, but emphasizing that the fundamentals had indeed changed. This was going to be a Protestant reign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/january-16th-queen-elizabeths-nicknames\/\">tomorrow&#8217;s post on the Nicknames the Queen gave to her advisors<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>&#8216;Divorced, Beheaded, Died&#8217;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Can I remind you that I wrote a best-selling book on the Kings and Queens of Britain?
