A Riddle of the Cid.

A medieval condottier in the service of the Moslem, when he was fighting to fill his own coffers with perfect i'm partiality against Moor or Christian, banished as traitor by his Castilian sovereign. and constantly leading the forces of the infidel against Aragon, against Catalonia, and even against Castile, he has become the national hero of Spain. Warning against the Moslem of Valencia, whom he pitt lessly despoiled, with the aid of the Moslem of Saragossa, whose cause he cynically betrayed, while he yet owed a nominal allegiance to Alfonso of Castile, whose territories he was pitt lessly ravaging; retaining conquered Valencia for his personal and private advantage, in despite of Moslem and Christian kings, he has become the type of Christian loyalty and Christian chivalry in Europe. Avaricious, faith less, cruel and bold, a true soldier of fortune, the Cid still maintains a rep utation which is one of the enigmas of history. - History of Spain-U. R. Burke
