H.M. Queen Elizabeth II

21st April 1926 - 8th September 2022

(Reigned from 6th February 1952)

It having pleased Almighty God to take to His Mercy Our late Most Gracious Sovereign Lady Queen Elizabeth of blessed memory, who departed this life this day, at Balmoral.

Lord God, when thou givest to thy servants to endeavour any great matter, grant us also to know that it is not the beginning, but the continuing of the same, until it be thoroughly finished, that yieldeth the true glory; through him who, for the finishing of thy work, laid down his life for us, our Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

Sir Francis Drake

May she rest in peace and rise in glory

God Save the King
