Normally, the Queen is a pillar of strength for her family and the balm for the nation s soul. But yesterday, on an occasion of deep sorrow and rare glories, it was she who required succour.
When, for instance, the national minute s silence froze the scene inside St George s Chapel in the great walled enclosure of Windsor Castle.
And again when the Last Post cast its mournful spell and she bowed her head, appearing to wipe away a tear.
But never was the blast of goodwill from her country needed most than when she stood – desolate, masked, alone, without even a hand to squeeze – watching the coffin bearing her husband of 73 years sink dramatically beneath the chapel s marble floor.

BURLINGTON A federal judge has denied a 43-year-old Vermont man’s request to be let out of jail ahead of his trial on charges he kidnapped a New Hampshire woman and her young child and took them across state lines into the Upper Valley in 2019.
In a ruling filed in the U.S. District Court in New Hampshire last week, Judge William Sessions responded to the request, filed last month by defendant Everett Simpson, who faces federal kidnapping charges for the January 2019 incident.

BURLINGTON A Vermont felon who is accused of sexually assaulting a Manchester woman after kidnapping her and her 4-year-old son two years ago has asked to be released from jail before his trial, citing family issues and concerns about being able to communicate with his attorney during the pandemic.
But prosecutors want to keep him behind bars, saying he still poses a serious risk to the public.
Everett Simpson, 43, who has been held in federal custody since his arrest in early 2019, filed a motion through his attorney in U.S. District Court in Burlington last week, requesting the release.
