A special coverage

Of princess ann's london visit,

The first stop on her much-publicized goodwill tour

Of european capitals.

She gets a royal welcome from the british,

As thousands cheer the gracious young member

Of one of europe's oldest ruling families.

After three days of continuous activity

And a visit to buckingham palace,

Ann flew to amsterdam,

Where her royal highness dedicated

The new international aid building

And christened an ocean liner,

Then went to paris,

Where she attended many official functions

Designed to cement trade relations

Between her country

And the western european nations.

And so to rome, the eternal city,

Where the princess's visit was marked

By a spectacular military parade

Highlighted by the band

Of the crack bersagliere regiment.

The smiling princess showed no sign of the strain

Of the week's public appearances.

And at her country's embassy that evening,

A formal reception and ball in her honor

Was given by her country's ambassador to Italy.

Her royal highness.
