acariciar
EN Sometimes, when they woke out of these silences they had a dim and transient consciousness that something had happened to their minds; then with a dumb and yearning solicitude they would softly caress each other's hands in mutual compassion and support, as if they would say: "I am near you, I will not forsake you, we will bear it together; somewhere there is release and forgetfulness, somewhere there is a grave and peace; be patient, it will not be long".
GL Algunhas veces, cando espertaban destes silencios, tiñan conciencia confusa e transitoria de que algo lles ocorrera ás súas mentes e, despois, cunha solicitude estúpida e tenra, acariciábanse as mans un ó outro con dozura, por compaixón e apoio mutuos, como dicindo "estou ó teu lado e non te abandonarei, soportarémolo xuntos, nalgún lugar ten que haber liberdade e esquecemento, nalgún sitio haberá unha tumba e paz; ten paciencia, non pode estar moi lonxe".
