I WAS glad when they said unto me: We will go into the house of the
Lord. Our feet shall stand in thy gates:
O Jerusalem.
Jerusalem is builded as a city: that is at unity in itself. Vivat Regina Elizabetha!
Long live Queen Elizabeth! O pray for the
peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
Peace be within thy walls: and plenteousness within thy palaces.
Charles Hubert Hastings Parry (1848-1918)
Psalm 122:
1-3, 6-7
