When the King was thus placed, the archbishop turned to the east part of
the theatre; then, together with the lord chancellor, lord great
chamberlain, lord high constable, and earl marshal (Garter king at arms
preceding them), went to the other three sides of the theatre, in the
order, south, west, and north, and at each side addressed the people in
a loud voice; the King at the same time standing up by his chair,
turned and showed himself to the people at each of the four sides of the
theatre, while the archbishop spoke as follows:--
"SIRS,
"I here present unto you King George the Fourth, the undoubted king
of this realm: wherefore all you that come this day to do your
homage, are ye willing to do the same?"
This was answered by the loud and repeated acclamations of the persons
present, expressive of their willingness and joy, at the same time they
cried out--
"God save King George the Fourth!"
Then the trumpets sounded.
