  Passage: Reed's School is an independent day and boarding school for boys located in Cobham, Surrey, England, founded by Rev. Andrew Reed, D.D. in 1813 and incorporated by Act of Parliament in 1845 under the presidency of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Duke of Wellington and the Marquis of Salisbury.  It is boys only until Year 11, but admits girls in Years 12 & 13.  There are currently around 660 day pupils (600 boys, 60 girls) and 100 full-time boarders (80 boys, 20 girls).  The school has historical links with the City of London Corporation and the British Royal Family, a member of which has acted as patron from the school's earliest days.  Since 1951, Queen Elizabeth II has acted as the school's 15th patron and has visited the school twice as the reigning monarch (she also visited as Princess Elizabeth in 1946), once in March 1997 and most recently in March 2014 (along with Prince Philip) as part of the school's bicentennial celebrations.  During the 2014 visit, the Queen unveiled a new stained glass window, designed by the artist Helen Whittaker, in the Chapel.  Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother opened a new wing in 1959 (this currently houses the 6th form boarders) and planted a tulip tree in the school's grounds.  She had previously opened a library in 1939 at the school's former site at Watford.  Since 1966, the school's headmasters have been members of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC).  Former pupils are known as "Old Reedonians".

  Title: Love's Labour's Lost
  Passage: Love's Labour's Lost is one of William Shakespeare's early comedies, believed to have been written in the mid-1590s for a performance at the Inns of Court before Queen Elizabeth I.  It follows the King of Navarre and his three companions as they attempt to forswear the company of women for three years of study and fasting, and their subsequent infatuation with the Princess of France and her ladies.  In an untraditional ending for a comedy, the play closes with the death of the Princess's father, and all weddings are delayed for a year.  The play draws on themes of masculine love and desire, reckoning and rationalization, and reality versus fantasy.
  Title: George VI and Queen Elizabeth Memorial
  Passage: The George VI and Queen Elizabeth Memorial, situated between The Mall and Carlton Gardens in central London, is a memorial to King George VI and his consort, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother.  Completed in its present form in 2009, the memorial incorporates an earlier, Grade II-listed statue of George VI by William McMillan, unveiled by his daughter Queen Elizabeth II in 1955.  The reconfigured memorial, which includes a statue of the Queen Mother by Philip Jackson, relief sculpture by Paul Day and an architectural setting by Donald Buttress and Donald Insall, was unveiled by Elizabeth II in 2009.
  Title: Queen Elizabeth (band)
  Passage: Queen Elizabeth are a British band.  It is a collaborative experimental project between Thighpaulsandra and Julian Cope.  The general concept behind Queen Elizabeth was a "sonic ritual" in which sounds, melodies and other sonic properties would combine.  Both releases, 1994's "Queen Elizabeth" and 1997's double-disc "Queen Elizabeth 2: Elizabeth Vagina", consist mostly of half-hour-long tracks which contrast experimental ambient music with short bursts of Krautrock.  The three discs (and seven tracks) are the band's only studio output, yet "Beneath the Frozen Lake of Stars", which appeared on Thighpaulsandra's "I, Thighpaulsandra", was a revamped version of a track destined for a third Queen Elizabeth release.  Cope has said that Thighpaulsandra's version went above and beyond the original recording they made together.
