arroupar
EN In his devouring mind's eye, he pictured to himself every roasting-pig running about with a pudding in his belly, and an apple in his mouth; the pigeons were snugly put to bed in a comfortable pie, and tucked in with a coverlet of crust; the geese were swimming in their own gravy; and the ducks pairing cosily in dishes, like snug married couples, with a decent competency of onion sauce.
GL A súa mente insaciable, facíalle imaxinar a tódolos leitóns xa asados, correndo cubertos dunha saborosa salsa e cunha mazá na boca. As pombas eran deitadas comodamente sobre un pastel, e arroupadas cunha capa de masa; os gansos nadaban na súa propia salsa e os patos ían en bandexas por parellas, coma se fosen felices matrimonios, regados con salsa de cebola.
