partir
EN The goblin was hard on his haunches; and (unskilful rider that he was!) he had much ado to maintain his seat; sometimes slipping on one side, sometimes on another, and sometimes jolted on the high ridge of his horse's backbone, with a violence that he verily feared would cleave him asunder.
GL O espectro íalle pisando os talóns e el non era o que se di un experto na equitación, polo que xa tiña que facer un considerable esforzo para non caer. Unhas veces esvaraba por un costado e outras polo outro, e ía dando tantos saltos sobre o lombo do seu cabalo e con tanta violencia que por un momento pensaba que ía partir en dous.

fender
EN A rim of the young moon cleft the pale waste of skyline, the rim of a silver hoop embedded in grey sand; and the tide was flowing in fast to the land with a low whisper of her waves, islanding a few last figures in distant pools.
GL A orla da lúa nova fendía o pálido ermo do horizonte, a orla dun arco de prata canxada na area cinsenta; e a marea fluía de présa cara á praia co leve murmurio das ondas, illando unhas poucas e derradeiras figuras nas pucharcas distantes.
