beetling
adjective
mesto
EN There was, however, one tall, dry-looking old gentleman, with beetling eyebrows, who maintained a grave and rather severe face throughout: now and then folding his arms, inclining his head, and looking down upon the floor, as if turning a doubt over in his mind.
GL Sen embargo, había outro vello cabaleiro alto, de cellas mestas, que mantivera todo o tempo unha expresión seria e algo fría, cruzando os brazos de cando en vez, inclinando a cabeza e mirando ó chan como se lle estivese dando voltas a algunha dúbida que tiña.

saínte
EN A beetling bastion of the fortress overlooked the palace and public square in front of it; and on this bastion the old governor would occasionally strut backwards and forwards, with his Toledo girded by his side, keeping a wary eye down upon his rival, like a hawk reconnoitering his quarry from his nest in a dry tree.
GL Un baluarte saínte da fortaleza espreitaba o palacio e maila praza pública que tiña diante, e por ese baluarte íase peneirar ás veces dun cabo a outro o vello gobernador, coa súa espada toledana cinguida á cintura e os ollos fixos sobre o seu rival de embaixo, coma un falcón a aluca-la súa presa dende o niño nunha árbore seca.
