apoucado

EN Already ashamed of that petulance, of that gesticulation of the hands when charging at the head of his troops, Mr Ramsay rather sheepishly prodded his son's bare legs once more, and then, as if he had her leave for it, with a movement which oddly reminded his wife of the great sea lion at the Zoo tumbling backwards after swallowing his fish and walloping off so that the water in the tank washes from side to side, he dived into the evening air which, already thinner, was taking the substance from leaves and hedges but, as if in return, restoring to roses and pinks a lustre which they had not had by day.
GL Avergoñado xa da súa petulancia, da súa xesticulación coas mans mentres cargaba á fronte das tropas, o señor Ramsay, apoucado, beliscou outra vez a perna espida do seu fillo, e logo, coma se ela lle dese permiso, cun movemento que á súa muller lle traía a estraña lembranza do gran león mariño do zoo cando se esborralla para atrás despois de larpa-lo peixe e se afasta dando tombos de xeito que a auga do estanque ondea dun lado a outro, mergullouse no aire da tarde, que, esmorecido, absorbía a substancia das follas e as sebes, pero como en compensación restituíalle ás rosas e ós caraveis un brillo que non tiveran durante o día.
