shingle
 noun
 seixo
EN Then again peace descended; and the shadow wavered; light bent to its own image in adoration on the bedroom wall; when Mrs McNab, tearing the veil of silence with hands that had stood in the wash-tub, grinding it with boots that had crunched the shingle, came as directed to open all windows, and dust the bedrooms.
GL Despois fixérase a paz outra vez; e arrandeara a sombra; a luz veneraba a súa propia imaxe na parede do dormitorio; foi daquela cando a señora McNab, esgazando o veo de silencio con mans que andaran no vertedeiro, esnaquizándoo con botas que renxeran nos seixos da praia, chegou para abrir tódalas ventás e limpa-lo po das habitacións tal e como lle mandaran.
