degradar
EN He had soon given in to them and allowed them to sweep across and abase his intellect, wondering always where they came from, from what den of monstrous images, and always weak and humble towards others, restless and sickened of himself when they had swept over him.
GL E Stpehen rendérase axiña deixando que aqueles penetrasen na súa intelixencia degradándoa. E andaba sempre a preguntarse de onde viñan, de que cova de monstruosas imaxes procedían, deixándoo sempre, así que liscaban, feble e humilde diante dos demais, cheo de noxo e desasosegado.
