Product Description: Romantic legends of Spain By Gustavo Adolfo Becquer

Excerpt from In Sunny Spain With Pilarica and RafaelThe verses in this story, with the exception of the two snatches, in chapters 6 and 14, of ballads of the Cid, I have translated directly out of Spanish folk-song. Some of these, especially riddles, and others, especially those sung in the circle-dances, have previously appeared in The Churchman and in my Spanish Highways and Byways and are used here by the courtesy of The Churchman publishers and of the Messrs.
