performed by a scout is a scout style of sitting on knees. When the
president commands to offer the royal praise, a person must make a half
step forward, sit on knees, raise the left knee, and sit on the right heel.

the left knee. The person slightly lowers the face down while the song is
being sung. When the song is over, the person lifts the face up to a normal
position (when holding a hat, the row orders regulations introduced by
the Office of Scout Executive Board must be practiced).
