psalm
noun
salmo
EN His only resource on such occasions, either to drown thought, or drive away evil spirits, was to sing psalm tunes; --and the good people of Sleepy Hollow, as they sat by their doors of an evening, were often filled with awe, at hearing his nasal melody, "in linked sweetness long drawn out," floating from the distant hill, or along the dusky road.
GL O único que podía facer nesas ocasións, tanto para esquece-los seus pensamentos coma para afasta-los espíritos malignos, era cantar salmos, e as boas xentes de Sleepy Hollow, cando sentaban diante das súas portas pola tardiña, sentían temor ó escoita-la súa melodía nasal "cunha suavidade alongada", que proviña dalgún outeiro afastado, ou dalgún camiño escuro.
