Westminster Abbey with its two towers is in the middle of the picture with Big Ben in front of it.
Westminster Abbey is a Gothic church, the size of a cathedral, just west of the Palace of Westminster.
The Abbey is the traditional place of coronation and burial site for English Kings and Queens.
At that moment, a hundred yards down the nave, out of sight behind the choir screen, the stately tomb of Sire Isaac Newton had a lone visitor. The Teacher had been scrutinizing the monument for ten minutes now.
Newton's tomb consisted of a massive black-marble sarcophagus on which reclined the sculpted form of Sire Isaac Newton, wearing classical costume, and leaning proudly against a stack of his own books-Divinity, Chronology, Opticks, and Philosophieae Naturalis Principia Mathematica. At Newton's feet stood two winged boys holding a scroll. Behind Newton's recumbent body rose an austere pyramid. Although the pyramid itself seemed an oddity, it was the giant shape mounted halfway up the pyramid that most intrigued the Teacher.
