downfall
 noun
 caída
EN At the time of my visit a very ancient owl, who had recently arrived from Egypt, was seated on the lid of the box lecturing upon the inscription, and he proved from it that the coffer contained the silken carpet of the throne of Solomon the wise; which doubtless had been brought to Toledo by the Jews who took refuge there after the downfall of Jerusalem.
GL No tempo da miña visita, unha curuxa moi vella que acababa de chegar de Exipto sentaba na tapa do cofre a disertar verbo da inscrición, e quedou demostrado que a arca contiña o tapete de seda do trono de Salomón o Sabio, que sen dúbida fora traído a Toledo polos xudeus acubillados alí despois da caída de Xerusalén.
