  1. king of arms
    • 1854, Antonio Cánovas del Castillo, La campana de Huesca:
      El rey de armas se encogió de hombros, y sin atreverse ya a contrarrestar la voluntad poderosa del almogávar, comenzó a dictar la sentencia, aunque no sin dudar y balbucir, y detenerse como quien obra de mala gana.
      The King of Arms shrugged his shoulders, and not daring to counteract the mighty will of the almogavar, began to lay down the sentence, not without spluttering and pausing like a reticent worker.
