gamecock


- noun
- galo de pelexa

EN In his hand he swayed a ferule, that sceptre of despotic power; the birch of justice reposed on three nails, behind the throne, a constant terror to evil doers; while on the desk before him might be seen sundry contraband articles and prohibited weapons, detected upon the persons of idle urchins; such as half-munched apples, popguns, whirligigs, fly-cages, and whole legions of rampant little paper gamecocks.
GL Tiña unha argola na man, que simbolizaba o cetro do seu despótico poder, e a vara coa que administraba xustiza, un terror constante para os que se portan mal, estaba detrás do trono, colgada con tres cravos. Sobre un dos pupitres que tiña diante podíanse ver diversos artigos de contrabando e armas prohibidas que lle confiscara a algún pillabán, como mazás medio mordidas, pistolas de madeira, tarabelas, gaiolas para grilos, e toda unha lexión de pequenos e impoñentes galos de pelexa de papel.
