puritanic
adjective
puritano
EN Indeed, he may be supposed to pass much of his time in that state, now and then interrupting himself with a royalist song against old Noll and the Roundheads, breaking off suddenly, and looking round fearfully to see who were his auditors, and on beholding the modern appearance of his friend the Doctor, sighing to think that it is no longer of import to any, whether he sing a cavalier catch or a puritanic psalm.
GL De feito, supoñemos que pasaría a maioría do tempo nese estado, interrompendo de cando en vez o seu pensamento cunha canción monárquica contra o vello Noll e os cabezas peladas11 e calando bruscamente para mirar ao redor quen o está a escoitar, suspirando aliviado ao advertir a moderna aparencia do seu amigo o doutor e comprobar que a ninguén lle importa xa se canta cancións de cabaleiros ou salmos puritanos.
