A QUEEN IS CROWNED Echoing Through 1,000 Years Are Pledges of Kings and Queens By CHARLOTTE WHITTON, CBE Mayor of Ottawa LONDON, England--For to four centuries from the leaving of the Romans to defend their crumbling Empire and the com- ing of the Jutes, Angles and Saxons from the North, the land that is now England was torn within by struggles for supremacy the British and the Saxon tribes themselves, and from with- out by the invasions of the raiding ize erful kings of Wessex The pow gs Saxons -- gradually became the "Bretwaldas", or rui- ers, of all the Britons. Their might- iest leader was Alfred the Great. Dying, just as the tenth century opened, he left his kingdom in 900 AD to lesser sons and grandsons, unable to withstand the surging, well-led Norsemen. Swarming, also, over France -- the land of the Franks -- a south- ern people -- the Norsemen found- ed Normandy, '"'the land of the Northmen", and Sweyn Forkbeard of the Danes, subdued England to the sovereignty of his son, Canute. Canute, after defeating Edmund Ironside, Alfred's gallant descend- ant, in 1016, married BEmma, daughter of the Duke of Normandy (and widow of Alfred's great- grandson, Ethelred the Redeless-- or Heedless), thus uniting the two great lines of claimants to the Eng- lish throne. When their son Harthacanute fell dead of too much feasting at the Lambeth house of the Saxon Os- god Clapa (hence Clapton Station, where today we change buses) the English, with that unerring instinc of always selecting their own sovereign but with a destined line, selected for the Crown, Edward the Confessor, yet another de- scendant of the great Alfred and half brother of Harthacanute, by the same mother (Emma, daugh- ter of the Duke of Normandy) and hence first cousin to the young William, Duke of Normandy. Edwazd, saintly and unworldly, was neither soldier nor sovereign, and left the heavy defence of a threatened kingdom to Harold, Earl of Godwin, the warrior broth- er of his revered Queen Edith. All Edward's interest centred on rearing to God a great Abbey of thanksgiving on the ancient found- ation of his Saxon forebears, West- minster. Here, he willed that the Kings of England would hence- forth be crowned. The Confessor himself, like the kings for generations before him, had been crowned at the ancient capital of Winchester where, in- deed, six early Kings of Saxon England are still interred, high in their caskets in the choir of the Cathedral in which the gentlest and most gracious of all our Eng- lish novelists, Jane Austen, also rests. And before Winchester, the pleasant market King'ston (King's Town)-on-Thames was the crown- ing place of the Saxon kings. Their "crowning stone" may be seen en- closed today with iron palings, pro- tecting the stone base and bearing the names of the seven chieftains crowned there from 924 to 1016, Ethelred the Redeless and Edmund {Ironside among -them. Edward held tenaciously to ebb- close | ch 28, 1065, but died a few days later, his tomb or shrine of St. Edward enduring, to this day, as the Abbey's most hallowed spot. The Witan, or Parliament of the Saxons, whose right it was to do so, named Harold Godwin to be their King. He was crowned either at Winchester or St. mon knowledge of every schoolboy. Harold, betrayed by his brother Tostig, was faced with desperate battle at Stamford Bridge -- far north in the Humber land. After a gallant victory, by forced marches of miraculous skill skill and endurance, he turned south and met William's overwhelming hosts at Senlac -- the field of blood -- near Hastings. Their King slain on the field, the flower of the Saxon earls d with him, the Witan defiantly chose Edgar Atheling, grandson of Bd- mund Ironside, to be their sover- eign, but the of gallant blood could not submit to the Nor- Tor. bey Church, in the same fivefold an- cient office -- the Recognition of the free choice us their monarch ever flowing tide of life and death and life again, made visible in the unchanging symbol of the Crown.
