Serbian Folk Songs, Fairy Tales and Proverbs e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. During the last eighteen months Serbia has come nearer to us. Fighting against terrible odds, our brave little ally held up the walk-over of her powerful northern neighbour, and thrice she threw back the vast armies of Austria. Little Serbia not only impaired the prestige of her foe, but also kept fully occupied those legions of Austria which other wise would have been employed elsewhere. The fine peasant army of Serbia was the rampart which for long weary months defied the Central Powers in their policy of joining up with the Turk. Finally, however, gallant little Serbia went down under the avalanches from North and East.
