Coming down now to the carved springers, we must bear in mind that the building of the chapel is “to the glory and praise of God,” and that it has been the object of the donors of the chapel to try and express in the springers and groined roof the spirit of the great festal expressions of Christian thanksgiving and praise contained in our Prayer Book in the “Te Deum Laudamus” (verses 1–13) and in the great Eucharistic thanksgiving. As we raise our eyes to the “angel” bosses of the groining and to the springers of the eastern bay we can say, “Therefore with the angels and archangels and all the company of Heaven we laud and magnify Thy glorious Name,” “To Thee all angels cry aloud,” for the Redeemer looks down upon us surrounded by the angels, and beneath the springer canopies there stand the figures of the archangels, “the seven spirits that are ever before the throne of God,” and of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to whom was given by the Early Church the sweet title of the Queen of the Angels, “Regina Angelorum.” In the north-east springer stands St. Michael (like unto God) Captain-General of the Host of Heaven, Patron Saint and Prince of the Church Militant, the Archangel of the Judgment, bearing in his hands the sword and scales, and with his armour scarce covered by his ample cloak. By him stands St. Gabriel (God is my strength), the Archangel of the Annunciation, bearing in his hands the sceptre, and with the scroll inscribed “Ave Maria, Gratia Plena.” Facing them, in the south-east springer stands the Blessed Virgin Mary, and next her St. Raphael (the medicine of God), the chief of guardian angels, the angel of the pilgrims, with the pilgrim’s staff and gourd. In the south-west springer of this bay, Jophiel (the beauty of God), the archangel of Truth and guardian of the Tree of Knowledge, stands with the flaming sword next to Chamuel (one who sees God) the archangel of the Sacrament, holding the chalice in his hand, whilst in the north-west springer, Zadkiel (the righteousness of God), the angel who stayed the hand of Abraham from sacrificing Isaac, is seen, holding the sacrificial knife, with Uriel near him, Uriel, the archangel of the Light of God, bearing the Roll and Book.
