Explore "The Leap of Roushan Beg" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Mounted on Kyrat strong and fleet, / His chestnut steed with four white feet, / Roushan Beg, called Kurroglou, / Son of the road and bandit chief, / Seeking refuge and relief, / Up the mountain pathway flew.
Such was Kyrat's wondrous speed, / Never yet could any steed / Reach the dust-cloud in his course. / More than maiden, more than wife, / More than gold and next to life / Roushan the Robber loved his horse.
