Answer 2

With the death of Mary, Elizabeth succeeded to the throne of England in 1558. The bells tolled and citizens cheered. It was the beginning of the age of queens, where women would defy the principles of male-dominated rule, with the likes of the Queen Mother, Catherine de'Medici of France, Mary of Scotland and Elizabeth, Queen of England. The latter, however, would become the cornerstone of the era, guiding a kingdom with poise, wit, intellect and strong rule. The festivities commenced with a spectacular coronation procession through London, the heart of England. The new Queen was paraded through the crowded streets atop an open litter draped in golden fabric. Elizabeth looked radiant in a majestic black and white gown hand-embroidered with the finest jewels. Having waited hours for her arrival, commoners waved brilliant banners and called out to Queen Elizabeth I as she rode by. Occasionally she would smile and wave, and graciously accepted branches of rosemary and nosegays from the hands of those less fortunate. The coronation procession was followed by five pageants in honour of the new Queen, each focusing on Elizabeth's ancestry, government, hope and respect. The challenge that awaited her was symbolised in the final pageant. Elizabeth was depicted as a prophet from the Old Testament who would save the House of Israel and go on to rule for many years. The coronation itself took place in Westminster Abbey on the following day. At the time, there was no Archbishop of Canterbury and because they viewed her as illegitimate and an affirmed Protestant, the senior bishops refused to participate in Elizabeth's coronation. She was crowned in Latin, although parts of the coronation were also read in English. The entire coronation was a delicate balance between Catholic and Protestant faiths as not to offend her citizens who had been torn apart by a religious divide under Mary's rule. Elizabeth was a decisively wise leader, who intended to slowly introduce change. Queen Elizabeth I of England emerged from the coronation ceremony to adorning supporters, holding the orb and scepter representative of her official role. "Be ye well assured I will stand your good Queen," Elizabeth spoke with elegance. It was a coronation pledge that would stand as a testament to Queen Elizabeth's celebrated reign.
