Don Quixote de la Mancha
Alonso Quijano was a middle-aged gentleman from the region of La Mancha in central Spain.
Instead of taking care of his estate, Alonso was obsessed with the chivalrous ideals touted in the books he constantly read. He would imagine himself as a knight, riding his noble steed defending the helpless and destroying the wicked.
One day, he went to his neighbor, a simple man called Sancho Panza, and told him, “Sancho, I have decided that I will become a brave knight and I would like you to become my faithful squire!” Sancho didn’t quite understand what was going on, but he agreed to go along with his neighbor.
Alonso went back home and put on his grandfather’s dusty and rusty armor, then he chose an old horse to ride upon and gave a donkey to Sancho, “Beware, world! I am Don Quixote, a brave and noble knight! And this is my horse, Rocinante! Off we go, Sancho!”, he said.
And they both went riding to a nearby village called El Toboso.
As Don Quixote and Sancho Panza proudly rode through the streets of El Toboso, the villagers looked curiously at the two strange characters and wondered who they could be and what they could be doing.
Quite unexpectedly, Don Quixote and Sancho rode past a young peasant woman who was working in the fields. She was a rather brawny girl, well-built and sturdy but through Don Quixote’s imaginative eyes, she looked like the most beautiful and delicate maiden he had ever seen and he even imagined a name for her, “Her name is Dulcinea…”
“Her rank must be at least that of a princess, since she is my queen and lady, and her beauty superhuman, since all the impossible and fanciful attributes of beauty which the poets apply to their ladies are verified in her. ”
“For her hairs are gold, her forehead Elysian fields, her eyebrows rainbows, her eyes suns, her cheeks roses, her lips coral, her teeth pearls, her neck alabaster, her bosom marble, her hands ivory, her fairness snow, and what modesty conceals from sight such, I think and imagine, as rational reflection can only extol, not compared.”, he told Sancho.
Sancho was confused. “See, Sancho?”, Don Quixote told him, “This is our purpose! To protect such a lovely maiden from the dangers of the world!”
“Don’t worry, Dulcinea! Don Quixote is here to fight the bad and wicked!”, he shouted back as they continued their journey.
Don Quixote and Sancho were resting under a tree when suddenly they saw a big cloud of dust approaching and heard a loud noise. “Look, Sancho!”, shouted Don Quixote, “An enemy army approaches! Give me my lance and shield!”
Don Quixote jumped onto Rocinante and quickly charged. But it was just a big flock of sheep! So Don Quixote saw himself alone in the middle of hundreds of running sheep!
However, Don Quixote saw enemy soldiers amidst the sheep that were running past him. “Stay here and fight, you cowards!”, he shouted loudly as he tried to manage his lance(此处字数有限)
