potentado

EN In the upper part of the tower was a circular hall, with windows looking towards every point of the compass, and before each window was a table, on which was arranged, as on a chess-board, a mimic army of horse and foot, with the effigy of the potentate that ruled in that direction, all carved of wood.
GL Na parte de arriba da torre había unha rotonda con fiestras que miraban ós catro puntos do compás, e diante das fiestras había cadansúa mesa, na que estaba disposto coma nun taboleiro de xadrez un exército finxido de a cabalo e mais de a pé, coa efixie, tallada en pao, do potentado que rexía nesa dirección da compás.
