The Queen's Drawing Room. West elevation. Detail showing Queen Anne as Britannia, with Christian Truth and a prophetess. The Sibyl-like figure, or prophetess, on the Queen's left, holds an open book. The inscription is a quotation from Lucan's 'Pharsalia' or 'Civil War' and means, loosely translated, that no-one goes to war for the sake of rights or in defence of laws, but only in pursuit of glory and gold
