The acclamation ""Vivat!"" is still used in British coronations when the sovereign is hailed while processing from the quire of Westminster Abbey towards the coronation theatre, fronting the altar. The shouts are delivered by the King or Queen's Scholars of Westminster School, who by tradition are the first to acclaim the sovereign at the ceremony. This was last performed when Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953; she was greeted with ""Vivat, Regina! / Vivat, Regina Elizabetha! / Vivat! Vivat! Vivat!"", which was incorporated into Hubert Parry's anthem, "I was glad".
