"His Majesty was seated in his Chair of State in the upper angle of the Hautpas, on the right side. "Her Majesty was seated in her Chair of State, on the other side of the Hautpas. "And the four Princesses on stools placed next the Duke at the side of the Altar. "Her Majesty's Lord Chamberlain, Master of the Horse, and Vice Chamberlain, stood upon the Hautpas behind her. "The Ladies of the Bed-chamber, &c. went to the places assigned them. "During all this time the organ played; but, as soon as the persons were thus seated, the organ ceased, and Divine Service began. "After the Bishop of London and Dean of the Chapel had given the Blessing, their Majesties removed to the Throne, erected on the right-hand of the Altar of crimson velvet, richly laced with gold. "Then the Prince of Wales, leading the Princess of Wales, went up to the Altar, and kneeled there. "When the Dean had finished the Divine Service, the married pair rose, and retired back to their stools upon the Hautpas; where they remained while an Anthem composed by Mr. Handel was sung by his Majesty's band of musick, which was placed in a gallery over the Communion-table. _The Return was in the manner following._ "The drums, &c. as before. "The Prince of Wales, supported by two married Dukes, &c. "The Princess, supported as before. "Then their Majesties and the Princesses, in the same manner as they went to the Chapel. "As soon as the Procession came back to the door of the latter Drawing-room, the company stopped; but their Majesties, the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duke and the Princesses, went in, when the Prince and Princess received their Majesties' blessing. "About half an hour after ten the Royal Family supped in public, in the Great State Ballroom. Their Majesties were placed at the upper end of the table under a canopy: on the right-hand the Prince of Wales and the Duke; and on the left the Princess of Wales, and the Princesses Amelia, &c. "The first course consisted of fifteen dishes cold and fifteen hot, the second of thirty dishes hot; and then came the dessert, which formed a fine garden rising to a terrace, the ascent to which was adorned with the resemblance of fountains, grottoes, groves, flowers, &c. In the middle was the Temple of Hymen, the dome of which was supported on transparent columns three foot high. As the meats were the most exquisite and rare that could be procured, so the dessert contained a profusion of the finest fruits, amongst which were cherries in great perfection, apricots, pine-apples, &c. At the end of the first course, their Majesties drank to the Bride and Bridegroom; and soon after, the Prince and Princesses rising up, drank the healths of their Majesties, during which the Duke and Princesses stood likewise. When the Royal Family rose from table, the sweetmeats were distributed amongst the Quality.
