Katherine of England
Katherine of England (Old English: ''Katerine''; 25 November 12533 May 1257) was the fifth child of Henry III and his wife, Eleanor of Provence. She was born either a deaf-mute or just deaf and mentally challenged〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Katherine Plantagenêt )〕 and was very sickly. She possibly had a degenerative disease, did not survive her third year and died at Windsor.
== Birth ==
The little Princess was born early in the morning at Westminster Palace, Westminster, London. She was described as the most beautiful of all Henry's daughters,〔, p. 632〕 even though it was obvious something was wrong with her. Matthew Paris described her as "the most beautiful girl, but dumb and useless",〔 although this did not matter to her parents. They adored her for her beauty and delicacy.〔 She was christened by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Boniface of Savoy, Katherine's maternal granduncle, who also stood as her godfather.〔 She received the name ''Katherine'' because she was born on the feast of Saint Catherine of Alexandria.〔 A few days after her christening, on the day of Saint Edward the Confessor's death, 5 January 1254, the King held a massive banquet,〔 to which he invited all the nobility, including Emma le Despencer and her son, John.〔 The provisions for this banquet included "fourteen wild boars, twenty-four swans, one hundred and thirty-five rabbits, two hundred and fifty partridges, fifty hares, two hundred and fifty wild ducks, sixteen hundred and fifty fowls, thirty-six female geese and sixty-one thousand eggs".〔
