Masses bid farewell to Diana
LONDON (AP) - Tears, flowers
and inconsolable crowds followed
Diana to her final resting place in
England’s green hills Saturday, in an
extraordinary day of pageantry and
proud tribute from a land the sad
and-smiling princess spoke longingly
of fleeing.
Before her last journey north, to a
private burial in the tranquillity of her
ancestral home, Diana’s brother
lashed out at the media, and at a royal
family in which she starred in “the
most bizarre life imaginable.”
And before she was lowered into
that solitary grave, millions of British
people poured out their hearts in a
final farewell - in the cool morning
outside Diana’s Kensington Palace
home, in the sparkling midday sun at
Westminster Abbey, on London’s
boulevards and grand plazas.
They cried at the courage of
Prince William, 15, and Prince Harry,
12, as they walked behind their moth
er’s funeral cortege.
They sang along with hymns of
old and Elton John’s revised version
of “Candle in the Wind,” dedicated to
“England’s rose.”
But mostly they watched and
reflected on the tragedy that snatched
this imperfect heroine, the Princess
of Wales, from their lives in the
senseless wreck of an automobile in
Paris just six days earlier.
“It is such a shame that we could
not have done this for her in life,” said
one man outside Kensington Palace,
“so she could have known how we
felt.”
In the age-old tradition of a
1,000-year-old monarchy, the day
was well scripted. But it was the one
text that didn’t appear in the pre-pub
lished program - the eulogy by the
Earl Spencer - that electrified the
mourners within and without the
ancient abbey.
As he stood near Diana’s coif in in
hallowed Westminster Abbey, he
ripped into the newspapers and pho
tographers who had made her “the
most hunted person of the modern
age.”
“There is no doubt that she was
looking for a new direction in her life
at this time,” Spencer said. “She
talked endlessly of getting away from
England, mainly because of the treat
ment she received at the hands of the
newspapers.
“I don’t think she ever understood
why her genuinely good intentions
were sneered at by the media.... My
own, and only, explanation is that
genuine goodness is threatening to
those at the opposite end of the moral
spectrum.”
Listening to loudspeakers or
watching on giant TV screens in
London’s parks, the crowd? of com
moners applauded, some holding
their clapping hands high jn emphat
ic agreement. Inside the royal church,
the congregation joined in. \
While Queen Elizabeth II,
Diana’s former husband Prince
Charles and all the senior members of
the royal family listened, Earl
Spencer said Diana’s “blood family”
would strive to protect the young
princes, “so that their souls are not
simply immersed by duty and tradi
tion but can sing openly as you
planned.”
At least a million people had
pressed into the center of London to
pay their respects, and hundreds of
thousands more lined roads along the
way to the burial site at the family
estate in Northamptonshire.
