Originally a separate palace, the Tuileries was United with the Louvre by Henry IV. The original building was the result of Catherine de' Medici, who found the louvre to cold and crowded. She turned her eye to a former tile factory and made it the Palace of her dreams. The gardens stretch out to the canal going through Paris. They mostly serve as an amusement park for Parisians. However the grounds are off limits as of recently. After getting dressed the royal couple entered the mini church inside the Tuileries and gave prayer to God before setting off on their parade to Notre Dame

The Royal couple entered a beautiful carriage, drawn by 6 white stallion horses. They left the Palace and went down towards Les Invalids.

When they arrived at Les Invalids they got out of the carriage. They King took the Queens hand and helped her out. Royal ladies carried the queens cape as she and the King walked to the glittered dome of Les Invalids. In the courtyard new recruits took at attention and saluted the Royal couple on route to the Dome. When they entered they met up with Generals and Marshals of France who swore their oaths to the King. The King prayed for the Generals who were assassinated days before in the hall. The Queen took roses and laid them at the alter.

After the Royals walked back to the carriage and continued to Notre Dame. The King and Queen passed the Palais de Justice. This ancient and ornate building that overlooks the Tour de l'Horloge with its elaborate clock featuring figures of Justice and Law, was built in 1296 by Philip IV of France, in spite of that kings financial worries it was at this building he consolidated the dispensation of Justice, although back in those days the judges became infamous for their corruption.

"God eternal, All powerful, Creator and Governor of the Heavens and the Earth, Maker and Disposer of angels and of men, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Thou who madest Abraham Thy faithful servant to triumph over his enemies, who hast raised to the highest in the Kingdom David, Thy humble servant, and hast delivered him out of the mouth of the lion, and out of the paw of the beast, and likewise from Goliath, and from the malicious sword of Saul, land from all his enemies, and has enriched Solomon with the wondrous gift of wisdom and of peace, forgive and accept our humble prayers, and multiply the gifts of Thy blessings on this Thy servant, who with all humble devotion, we, with one accord, choose for King, and we beseech Thee encompass him evermore, and in all places with the right hand of Thy power, so that strengthened by the fidelity of Abraham, possessed of the patience of Joshua, inspired with the humility of David, adorned with the wisdom of Solomon, he may be to Thee ever pleasing, and walk evermore without offence in the way of justice, and henceforth in such wise succour, direct, guard and uplift the church of the whole kingdom, and the people belonging thereto, may he administer with puissance and right royally the rule of Thy power against all enemies visible and invisible, may he not abandon his rights over the kingdoms of the Franks, the Burgundians, and of Aquitania, but aided by Thee inspire them with their sometime loyalty so that made glad by the fidelity of all his people, and provided with the helmet of Thy protection, and ever guarded with the invincible buckler, and compassed about with the celestial armies, he may happily triumph over his enemies, cause the infidel to fear his power, and with joy bring peace to those who fight under Thy banner. Adorn him by many a gracious blessing, with the virtues with the which Thou hast enriched Thy faithful ones aforesaid, counsel him richly in the government of the kingdom, and anoint him plenteously with the grace of the Holy Spirit."


"May Jesus Christ our Lord and God, and Son of God, who by the Father was anointed with the oil of gladness above all others who are one with Him, by this present infusion of the sacred unction pour upon thy head the blessing of the Holy Spirit, and make it go even unto the innermost recesses of thy heart, so that thou canst by this visible and material gift, perceive the things invisible, and after having with right moderation accomplished the temporal kingdom, mayest thou reign with Him eternally for the sake of Jesus Christ our Saviour."

The Pope says the prayer "God, who gave to Moses victory," and kisses the king with the words "May the king live forever" and his cry is taken up by the peers and all the people present as they acknowledged him as their duly anointed, crowned and enthroned king. The Pope then crowns the Queen while saying the same prayer and says the words "May Queen live forver"

The King and Queen stood up and held each others hands as the crowd cheered. They walked outside Notre-Dame to the masses and stood at the entrance taking in the cheers. A light smile took the kings face along with the queen as they looked at each other then back to the people. Louis XIV slowly raised his hand and waved to the people, the Queen followed. They then went to the Royal Carriage and travlled through the crowds to the Kings Fathers Hunting Lodge...Versailles.
