- intransitive verb
.....--- to pine away
- languidecer

EN And as to the young laborers, they are now in as hopeful a condition; they cannot get work, and consequently pine away for want of nourishment, to a degree that if at any time they are accidentally hired to common labor, they have not strength to perform it; and thus the country and themselves are happily delivered from the evils to come.
GL En canto ós novos labregos, direi que estes atópanse nunha situación prometedora porque non conseguen traballo e, como consecuencia, languidecen por falta de alimento ata tal punto que se, de súpeto, alguén os contratase para realizar un traballo habitual, non terían forzas para facelo; e así, tanto o país como eles son felizmente liberados do mal que ha vir.
