perishableness
noun
carácter perecedoiro
EN In short, I never turned my thoughts this way, but I fell into a downright midsummer madness; I could not enjoy what I had, craving for that which I had not, and could not have; was thirsty like Tantalus in the midst of waters; even when using my present wealth, thought only of its perishableness; and 'wept to have --what I so feared to lose!'.
GL En breve, nunca cambiei os meus pensamentos nesta dirección, senón que caín nunha completa tolemia de verán.. Non podía aproveita-lo que tiña -ansiando o que non tiña e non podía ter-; estaba sedento, coma Tántalo, no medio das augas; mesmo cando usaba a miña saúde presente, só pensaba no seu carácter perecedoiro; e "choraba por te-lo que tanto temía perder".
