Public asked to swear allegiance to King Charles during the Coronation
By Harry Farley & Sean SeddonPeople watching the Coronation will be invited to join a "chorus of millions" to swear allegiance to the King and his heirs, organisers say.In a coronation full of firsts, female clergy will play a prominent role, and the King himself will pray out loud.
Full details of the Westminster Abbey service - the theme of which is "called to serve" - have been published by Lambeth Palace. The order of service will read: "All who so desire, in the Abbey, and elsewhere, say together: I swear that I will pay true allegiance to Your Majesty, and to your heirs and successors according to law. So help me God."The Archbishop of Canterbury will then proclaim "God save the King", with all asked to respond: "God save King Charles. Long live King Charles. May the King live forever.
While the oaths - which have remained unchanged for centuries - will retain their Protestant pledge, Lambeth Palace said the Archbishop of Canterbury will "contextualise" them. He added that it may appear a neat solution to leave the oaths unchanged and have the Archbishop of Canterbury express that forward-looking sentiment, but progressives will be left wondering why the protection of the practice of all beliefs could not be part of the oral contract with the nation that the King enters into.As part of the service Muslim, Hindu, Jewish and Sikh peers will present the King with pieces of the coronation regalia, including bracelets, the robe, the ring, and the glove.
