antergo

EN Winterbourne was a man of imagination and, as our ancestors used to say, of sensibility; as he looked at her dress and, on the great staircase, her little rapid, confiding step, he felt as if there were something romantic going forward.
GL Winterbourne era un home de imaxinación e, coma os nosos antergos adoitaban dicir, de sensibilidade. Mentres contemplaba o vestido dela, o seu paso miúdo, rápido e confiado pola maxestuosa escaleira, sentiu coma se algo romántico viñese avanzando cara el.

devanceiro
