prostituta

EN The soot-coated packet of pictures which he had hidden in the flue of the fireplace and in the presence of whose shameless or bashful wantonness he lay for hours sinning in thought and deed; his monstrous dreams, peopled by ape-like creatures and by harlots with gleaming jewel eyes; the foul long letters he had written in the joy of guilty confession and carried secretly for days and days only to throw them under cover of night among the grass in the corner of a field or beneath some hingeless door in some niche in the hedges where a girl might come upon them as she walked by and read them secretly.
GL A colección de gravados, lixada, que agachara na cheminea da lareira e diante dos que, noxenta e vergoñenta precocidade, pasaba horas pecando de pensamento e obra; os seus soños monstruosos, poboados por criaturas simiescas e prostitutas de ollos como xoias; as catro longas cartas que escribira polo pracer de confesarse culpable e que levara en segredo durante días e días, soamente pra chimpalas despois, amparado pola noite, no canto dun campo de herba, ou por debaixo dunha porta escangallada, ou na aberta dunha sebe, onde unha rapaza, ao pasar, puidese atopalas para lelas logo secretamente.
