Examples of using "Falchion" in a sentence and their french translations:

"Now die!" – So speaking, to the shrine he tore / the aged Priam, trembling with affright, / and feebly sliding in his son's warm gore. / The left hand twists his hoary locks; the right / deep in his side drives home the falchion, bared and bright.

" Mais avant, meurs ! " Il dit ; et, d'un bras sanguinaire, / du monarque traîné par ses cheveux blanchis, / et nageant dans le sang du dernier de ses fils, / il pousse vers l'autel la vieillesse tremblante ; / de l'autre, saisissant l'épée étincelante, / lève le fer mortel, l'enfonce, et de son flanc / arrache avec la vie un vain reste de sang.

Soon as he saw the captured city fall, / the palace-gates burst open, and the foe / dealing wild riot in his inmost hall, / up sprang the old man and, at danger's call, / braced o'er his trembling shoulders in a breath / his rusty armour, took his belt withal, / and drew the useless falchion from its sheath, / and on their thronging spears rushed forth to meet his death.

Voyant les Grecs vainqueurs au sein de ses remparts, / son antique palais forcé de toutes parts, / l'ennemi sous ses yeux, d'une armure impuissante / ce vieillard charge en vain son épaule tremblante, / prend un glaive à son bras dès longtemps étranger, / et s'apprête à mourir plutôt qu'à se venger.
