captivity


- noun
- cativerio

EN To escape from the tower in the day, when every one was awake, might be a difficult matter; but at night the palace was slightly guarded; for no one apprehended any attempt of the kind from the prince, who had always been so passive in his captivity.
GL Escapulir da torre polo día, en que todos estaban aleutos, podía ser asunto difícil; máis á noite o palacio estaba escasamente vixiado, pois ninguén matinaba nunha tentativa desta sorte por parte do príncipe, que tiña sido de cote tan pasivo no seu cativerio.

- catividade

EN A sense of fear of the unknown moved in the heart of his weariness, a fear of symbols and portents, of the hawk-like man whose name he bore soaring out of his captivity on osier-woven wings, of Thoth, the god of writers, writing with a reed upon a tablet and bearing on his narrow ibis head the cusped moon.
GL Un temor ao descoñecido latexou no cerne da súa canseira, un temor aos símbolos e aos portentos, ao home-falcón do que levaba o nome e que tentaba ceibarse da catividade cunhas ás feitas de vimbios entretecidos, a Thoth, o deus dos escritores, que escribe cunha cana nunha taboíña e que leva na súa estreita cabeza de ibis os cornos da lúa nova.
