63 before the altar, was anointed with the Holy Chrism, and then received the Eucharist, whereupon Archbishop Theo- phanes, the most eloquent ecclesiastical orator of his day, preached a commendatory sermon. Peter, who had long been ailing, exhausted by the arduous ceremony, now quitted the Cathedral, and returned to the Kremlin ; but the newly crowned Empress walked alone, at the head of a new procession from the Cathedral of the Assumption to the Archangel Cathedral, according to ancient cust...om, in full regalia, Menshikov walking by her side, and scattering handfuls of gold and silver among the people. The crown of Catherine, on this occasion, was the most costly and magnificent ever worn hitherto by a Russian Sovereign. It was made in Paris, on the model of the old Byzantine Imperial Crown, and was studded with no fewer than 2,564 precious stones.
Each of the numerous pearls on it was worth 2,000 rubles, ^ and Peter had stripped his own crown of its finest diamonds, the better to adorn his consort's.
