The Lay of the Cid is a classic epic poem that tells the story of a legendary medieval Spanish hero named Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar, also known as El Cid. This particular edition of the poem is translated into English by R. Selden Rose and includes an introduction and notes by Leonard Bacon. The Lay of the Cid is divided into three parts, each of which tells a different part of El Cid's story. The first part describes how El Cid is exiled from his homeland of Castile after being falsely accused of stealing from the king. The second part details El Cid's battles against the Moors and his eventual conquest of Valencia. The final part of the poem recounts El Cid's death and the aftermath of his passing. The Lay of the Cid is a timeless tale of heroism, loyalty, and honor, and this edition is an excellent resource for anyone interested in medieval literature or Spanish history.And Martin Antol������nez rode forth swiftly with the twain.

My lord the Cid smiled on them and unto them said he.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
