She landed in Plymouth on a Saturday
The reception plans in disarray
Shaken by a channel storm
Her entourage looking all forlorn
The English Autumn she would see
The leaves falling from every tree
A Princess of Aragon
Her journey told in this song
The Spaniards fell to their knees
Giving grateful thanks for her safety
Then to Exeter went the cavalcade
At the deanery Catherine then stayed
The English autumn she would see
The leaves falling from every tree
A Princess of Aragon
Her journey told in this song
Onto Honiton the very next day
In a covered chair she was carried away
To Sherborne and Shaftesbury
Approaching Arthur her groom to be
The English autumn she would see
The leaves falling from every tree
A Princess of Aragon
Her journey told in this song
The English autumn she would see
The leaves falling from every tree
A Princess of Aragon
Her journey told in this song
Her journey told in this song
