Anton Lesser: Harold MacMillan

Quotes 

• Rab Butler : I'm happy to tell you, delivery of the Queen's child is expected imminently.

  Harold MacMillan : Oh, well. Good gracious. Well, um, perhaps a moment's prayer on behalf of the government? O Lord, our heavenly Father, high and mighty, king of kings, lord of lords... the only ruler of princes, who dost, from Thy throne, behold all the dwellers upon Earth. Most heartily, we beseech Thee, with thy favor, to behold our most gracious Sovereign Lady, Queen Elizabeth, and so replenish her with the grace of thy Holy Spirit, that she may always incline to Thy will and walk in Thy way... Endue her plenteously with heavenly gifts. Grant her, in health and wealth, long to live. Strengthen her, that she may vanquish and overcome all her enemies and, finally, after this life... she may attain everlasting joy and felicity through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

  Ministers : Amen.
