William and Harry stand vigil with cousins at queen’s coffin



All eight of Queen Elizabeth II’s grandchildren stood in silent vigil beside her coffin on Saturday, capping another huge day in which thousands came to pay their last respects. Mourners huddled in a line that snaked across London, enduring the city’s coldest night in months and waits that stretched up to 16 hours. Princes William and Harry stood in silence at either end of the coffin, heads bowed, for the 15-minute vigil in the vast Westminster Hall where the coffin has been lying since Wednesday, as a line of mourners streamed past the late monarch’s lying-in-state.
