indefenso

EN But a terrible dread of lying helpless in that remote and awful twilight sustained me while I clambered upon the saddle.
GL Un terrible temor de ficar indefenso naquela horrible penumbra remota deume forzas mentres subía no meu asento.

desvalido

EN Buck staggered over against the sled, exhausted, sobbing for breath, helpless.

impotente

EN The heart throbbing faintly and more faintly, all but vanquished, the breath, the poor breath, the poor helpless human spirit, sobbing and sighing, gurgling and rattling in the throat.
GL O corazón máis feble, máis feble, case vencido; o alento, o pobre alento, o pobre espírito humano impotente, suspirando e xemendo, gargarexando e facendo estertores na gorxa.

inerme

EN There, by reason of the great number of the damned, the prisoners are heaped together in their awful prison, the walls of which are said to be four thousand miles thick: and the damned are so utterly bound and helpless that, as a blessed saint, saint Anselm, writes in his book on similitudes, they are not even able to remove from the eye a worm that gnaws it.
GL Alí, por causa do gran número de condenados, os prisioneiros amoréanse na súa arrepiante prisión, os muros da cal, ao ben visto, teñen un grosor de catro mil millas; e os condenados están tan suxeitos e tan inermes que, como di o beato santo Anselmo no seu libro sobre similitudes, nin sequera son quen de afastar do ollo o verme que anda a roelo.
