It was just here where the battle between these beasts took place.

You know that sit the year 1808 the Spaniards lay in Funen; the English ships were cruising about in the Belt, and Romana fled with his whole army on board, but they could net take their horses with them.

These were the most splendid Andalusian creatures that eyes ever saw.

The Spaniards took off their bridles, and left them here to scamper about the fields like wild horses.

The horses of Nyborg chanced also to graze here, and as soon as the Andalusian steeds became aware of ours they arranged themselves in a row, and fell upon the Danish horses: that was a combat! At length they fell upon each other, and fought until they fell bleeding to earth.
