amortallar
EN I looked; and the unseen figure, which still grasped me by the wrist, had caused to be thrown open the graves of all mankind, and from each issued the faint phosphoric radiance of decay, so that I could see into the innermost recesses, and there view the shrouded bodies in their sad and solemn slumbers with the worm.
GL Así o fixen; a figura invisible, que aínda me agarraba do pulso, fixo abri-las tumbas da humanidade enteira. De cada unha delas saía o tenue resplandor fosfórico da descomposición; de xeito que puiden ve-los recunchos máis secretos e olla-los corpos amortallados nos seus soños tristes e solemnes co verme.
