Aquel encanto de los ojos, aquel prodigio de color, remedo de la naturaleza sonriente, encendida por el sol de Mediodía, empezó a perder terreno, aunque el pueblo, con instinto de colorista y poeta, defendía la prenda española como defendió el parque de Monteleón y los reductos de Zaragoza.
4
That delight for the eyes, that marvel of color—an imitation of smiling nature, set aglow by the midday sun—began to lose ground, even though the common people, with the instinct of a colorist and a poet, defended this quintessentially Spanish garment just as they had defended the Monteleón Park and the bastions of Zaragoza.
