Banished by King Alfonso, Rodrigo Díaz of Bivar rides into exile with a few loyal men and wins land, booty and honour against the Moors until he takes Valencia. The poem follows his reconciliation with the king, the marriage of his daughters to the faithless Infantes of Carrión, and his pursuit of justice, here in rhymed English couplets of 1919.
