Description

The Cid meets with Doña Urraca, who rules the city of Zamora. He has been sent by King Don Sancho, her brother, to negotiate the future of Zamora. Don Sancho wants the city, but does not want to risk attacking it due to its fortifications, and so proposes to buy it from her or exchange it for two others. She refuses, leading to Don Sancho choosing to besiege the city.
