On Russian Literature Vol 1

The description of the battle, in which all Nature takes part - the eagles and the wolves, and the foxes who bark after the red shields of the Russians - is admirable. Igor's band is defeated. “From sunrise to sunset, and from sunset to sunrise, the steel arrows flew, the swords clashed on the helmets, the lances were broken in a far-away land - the land of the Pólovtsi.” “The black earth under the hoofs of the horses was strewn with bones, and out of this sowing affliction will rise in the land of the Russians.”
