Beyonce Knowles-Carter spoke of a song that began two hundred and forty-eight years ago .

It sounded like a sermon, or the voice-over for a superhero film.

The arrival of Beyoncé , a long-reigning monarch of American pop music, had been hotly anticipated.

Beyoncé was entering American politics in what analysts were referring to as a merging of the Bey Hive with the K Hive .

“We are grabbing back the pen!” she shouted, throwing down both arms, her great white cuffs flapping.

Beyoncé stood nodding at her side and you wondered if she was going to speak at all.

Then she got on the mike , and the arena went crazy.

She spoke of precipices and brinks, and an end to glass ceilings.
