But London showed another sight,

When the Queen came on Wednesday night,

Escorted, through a blaze of light

To join the City revelry.

At every window smart array’d,

Sat civic lass, and Cockney blade;

And all the populace hoorayed

To see the Royal pageantry.

Then shook St. Paul’s, with shouting riven;

Then rushed the steeds, up Cheapside driven;
