INSTALLATION of the KNIGHTS COMPANIONS of the Moll Honourable Order of the BATH, 
On Monday, the ill of June, 1812. 
T HIS fplendid ceremony was not announced earlier 
than a fortnight before the day appointed for it; 
and yet, fuch was the eagernefs of the knights, officers of 
the order, and all thofe who were concerned, that the ar¬ 
rangements were all completed, and in a flyle calculated to 
give this national fete all the pomp and majefty it is fufcep- 
tible of. Early in the morning the avenues to Weftminller 
Abbey, the feats erefted along the platform from the Houfe 
of Lords acrofs Palace-yard to the entrance of Poets’ Cor¬ 
ner, the windows and roofs of the neighbouring houfes, 
and the ftreets, were crowded with people. The nave and 
aides of the Abbey, where two amphitheatres and con¬ 
veniently-matted feats and temporary galleries had been 
fitted, were full. Every nook, corner of tomb, “jutting 
frieze, buttrefs, or coigne of ’vantage,” had its group of 
fpedrators ; and it was highly interefting to fee the deco¬ 
rations of opulence, and the charms of beauty, grouped 
with the marble effigies of the dead. Henry VII’s Cha¬ 
pel was filled with ladies in their moft falhionable at¬ 
tire, and gentlemen in full drefs. An organ had been 
placed under the great eaft window, and the orcheftra 
united in performing feveral appropriate pieces of facred 
mufic in the bell ftyle. Under the royal canopy, placed a 
little above the altar, two fons of our venerable monarch, 
two of his daughters, his grand-daughter the princefs Char¬ 
lotte of Wales, and the duchefs of York, were the principal 
ornament of the ceremony, though they were particularly 
remarkable for the plainnefs and fimplicity of their drefs. 
The elegant coftume of the knights, the oftrich-plumes 
•waving majeftically over their heads, the efquires in their 
chivalrefque furcoats and flame-colour hofe and flioes; 
the officers of the order in their flowing mantles of white 
fatin lined with crimfon, with their golden fceptres and 
badges ; the kings of arms, heralds, and purfuivants, in 
their rich tabards ; all contributed to give this folemnity 
a pomp and magnificence which few nations can difplay, 
and none can boaft of with fuch a fenfe of public and in¬ 
dividual fatisfaftion : for, when we confider the perfonal 
merits of thofe who were prefent in their flails, or inftall- 
ed on that day, we cannot help congratulating the nation 
at large upon fo many worthies, fo many brave defenders 
of our laws and rights, fo many heroes, who, Healing for a 
few moments from the dangers of war or other patriotic 
Rations, came to receive, at the foot of the altar of the 
God of Holts, a feemingly-trifling, but highly and juftly- 
c (teemed, honour, in compenlationforthe lofs of their blood, 
and as a reward for their well-tried valour; and to deliver 
their fwords into the hands of Religion, who makes them 
fwear never to ufe them but in her behalf, and for the de¬ 
fence and profperity of the country that gave them birth. 
Surely, confidered in this point of view, nothing can be 
more folemn, more impreffive, than this ceremony, of 
which the following is a correct and particularized ac¬ 
count. 
The Knights El eft, dreffied in their furcoats, mantles, 
snd fpurs, affembled in the Prince’s Chamber at Weft- 
minder, each attended by three Efquires, at ten o'clock

minder-abbey, and, entering at the fouth-eaft door,

lad arch next the great wed door of the abbey, paffed
