grallo

EN One moment more, with her head raised, she listened, as if she waited for some habitual sound, some regular mechanical sound; and then, hearing something rhythmical, half said, half chanted, beginning in the garden, as her husband beat up and down the terrace, something between a croak and a song, she was soothed once more, assured again that all was well, and looking down at the book on her knee found the picture of a pocket knife with six blades which could only be cut out if James was very careful.
GL Coa cabeza erguida escoitou un momento coma se agardase un son acostumado, un son regular e mecánico; e logo, tras oír algo rítmico, medio falado, medio cantado, no xardín, mentres o seu home paseaba con fortes pisadas dun lado a outro da terraza, algo entre un grallo e unha canción, sentiuse acougada novamente, segura outra vez de que todo ía ben, e mirando o libro no seu colo atopou o debuxo dunha navalla de seis follas que James só podería recortar se prestaba moita atención.
