THE SPECTATOR 29 LOS NARCISOS Por William Wordsworth Erre solo como un nube Que flota en alto sobre mantanas y vales, Cuaudo todo de un golpe ve un tropel, Hostia de narcisos aureos. A1 lado de lago, abojo los astas, Turbando y bailando en la brisa. Durando como las estrellas que brillan, Y centellean en la via lactia, Estiraron en una linea infinita, Adelante el borde del bayo. Doce milliones ve a un vislumbre Sus cabzas tirando, bailando vivamente. Las ondas al lado de les bailaron, Pero ellos excedieron las ondas en algeria, Un poeta debe ser gayo Eu tanta una compania vivia. Comtemple y contemple, pero no realize, Que ricos la vision me habia llevado. Muchas veces, cuando repose en sueno, En modo vacio y pensativo, Brillan en aquel ojo interno, Que esta consuelo de soledad. Eutonces mi corazon con gusto se llena, Y baila con las narcisos. Translado de “The Daffodils” Por Madalene Fitzsimmons. EL CID El Cid es el nombre dado a Rodrigo Diaz de Bivar, guerrero famoso de Espano, nacio acerca lei ano 1040. Era el guia del ejercito de Sancho II. El Rey de Castile. Sancho II. murio y Cid se ha desterrado de la cindad. Entonces ofrecio sus servicios al rey de Saragossa. Despues sitio Valencia por anos, tomo la cindad y goberno este distrito hasta su muerte. Esta historia era durante el vez cuando los espanoles impelaron los Moriscos de Espana. Cid era un soldado valiente y fuerte y un guia de los hombres. Muchas cosas se dicen acerca del Cid que no son verdaderos. El Cid es la mayor poema de Espana. Muchas poemas deleitables, canciones, y balades se han escrito acerca del Cid, hombre comparado con Charlebagne. —MARTHA BROSKI, ’22 PRIMAVERA Cuando el sol en el cielo Desperta las flores tiernas, Y la brisa calma fi'esca Canta un arrullo suavemente. Entonces los pajaros felizes Su melodia picante gorjean, Como un poeta se embriagado Con la hermonsa del mundo. Las ninas juegan con contento, En las calles, libre de importa. Sus voces de timbre claro Heraldo verdad de Primavera. —SUE McGREGOR, ’22

28 THE SPECTATOR THE PETITE AGNEAU DE MARIE Marie avait une petite agneau, Sa laige etait blanche si niege; Et partout que Marie est alle, L’agneau etait sur aller. Elle la suivrait a l’ecole une jour, Qu’etait contre le regies; Elle faisait les enfants rire, et jouer, Voir une agneau dans l’ecole. Ne plus a Marie une agneau, Elle aimait Marie ainsi bien; L’institrtrice la frappa une livre, Les enfants a marche pele-mele. Maintenant Marie est morte, aussi l’agneau, Elle amait Marie ainsi bien; Marie est alle auciel, L’agneau est alle a------toot. —A. R. M„ ’23. “MANNERS ANI) CUSTOMS OF SPAIN” Would you like to know something of the manners and customs of Spain? Of course you would. The Spaniards have many holidays. During the last two weeks of May the peasants come from Valencia, Aragon and other places, to the Shrine of San Isidora beyond Madrid. When they have filled their jugs at the miracle spring they make merry in the fields forming a pageant of Spanish costumes too x-arely seen. In May the secular fiestas ai-e of gi-eat.interest. Barcelona holds her annual Tourney of Catalonian Poesy, and celebrates festivals of flowers and dancing. On a Sunday early in April, Madx-id sees the prime military show of the year. One of the most impressive and yet hox--rible customs of Spain is the bull fight, and yet how fascinating it is to them. It is attended by both high and low classes. If a man is killed during a bull fight he is praised by all the people of the land. The Spanish spoxts are similar to our own. They enjoy football and tennis. The game of “pelota” or ball which, I imagine is similar to our baseball is the native sport of the Basques. They also find much pleasui-e in fishing, yatching and hunting. Do they dance? Yes, what nation does not? Their dances are oriental and to us very beautiful especially as to color and the l-hythmic movement. The girls wear flounced skirts, shawls and carry flowers of all different colors while the boys wear tight-ti-ousered, short jacketed suits, belted high with bi’ight sashes. They dance to the strumming of a guitar, and are applauded by the older folks who watch them. When a boy first stai-ts to school he picks out a cei'tain girl whom he likes and calls her his sweetheart and so she is always called until she becomes older. Then it is that she often feels a great dislike for him and vex-y seldom recognizes him. How like the youth of today! You can easily see by these few lines that the Spanish ax-e being influenced greatly by the more modem manners and customs and this influence is especially shown in the large cities. —ORPHA BRINKER, ’21.
