So trenchant was the Templar's weapon, that it shore asunder, as it had been a willow twig, the tough and plaited handle of the mace, which the ill-fated Saxon reared to parry the blow, and, descending on his head, levelled him with the earth.Напрасно Ательстан попытался парировать удар своей окованной железом палицей. Острый меч храмовника разрубил ее, как тростинку, и обрушился на голову злополучного сакса, который замертво упал на землю.Scott, Walter / YvanhoeСкотт, Вальтер / АйвенгоАйвенгоСкотт, Вальтер© Издательство "Художественная литература ", 1962YvanhoeScott, Walter
