""Orlando In Roncesvalles"" is a poem written in five cantos by John Herman Merivale and published in 1814. The poem tells the story of the legendary hero Orlando, also known as Roland, and his final battle in the Pyrenees against the Saracens. The poem is written in rhyming couplets and follows the traditional style of epic poetry, with grand descriptions of battles and heroic deeds. Merivale draws heavily from the medieval French epic ""The Song of Roland"" and other sources to create a vivid and engaging narrative. The poem is notable for its depiction of the landscape and culture of the Pyrenees region, as well as its exploration of themes such as honor, loyalty, and sacrifice. ""Orlando In Roncesvalles"" is a classic work of English literature and a must-read for anyone interested in epic poetry or medieval literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
