Explore "The Sword and the Spit" by Tomás de Iriarte on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Sheer, sharp and trusty, tempered well, / A Sword, as good as from the skilful hand / Of famous smith Toledan ever fell, / The shock of many a combat did withstand.
In turn, it several masters truly served, / And brought them safe through dangers many.
