leer
intransitive verb
mirar de esguello
EN As she lurched (for she rolled like a ship at sea) and leered (for her eyes fell on nothing directly, but with a sidelong glance that deprecated the scorn and anger of the world --she was witless, she knew it), as she clutched the banisters and hauled herself upstairs and rolled from room to room, she sang.
GL Mentres se bambeaba (pois daba bandazos coma un barco no mar) e miraba de esguello (pois nunca miraba nada de fronte, senón por riba dos ombros reprobando o desdén e a carraxe do mundo: era necia e sabíao), mentres se agarraba ó pasamáns e tomaba pulo para subi-las escaleiras e se bambeaba dunha habitación a outra, cantaba.
