At Windsor, sailors pull the gun carriage bearing the King's coffin into place facing the entrance to St. George's Chapel. The crown and orb are lifted from the coffin and the pallbearers fall in. The gun carriage pulls away as the coffin is borne away by the pallbearers, followed by the crown and orb up the steps of the chapel.
