asunder
adverb
en dous
EN (...) the goblin was hard on his haunches; and (unskilful rider that he was!) he had much ado to maintain his seat; sometimes slipping on one side, sometimes on another, and sometimes jolted on the high ridge of his horse's backbone, with a violence that he verily feared would cleave him asunder.
GL (...) o espectro íalle pisando os talóns e el non era o que se di un experto na equitación, polo que xa tiña que facer un considerable esforzo para non caer. Unhas veces esvaraba por un costado e outras polo outro, e ía dando tantos saltos sobre o lombo do seu cabalo e con tanta violencia que por un momento pensaba que ía partir en dous.
