por medo a
EN How often did he shrink with curdling awe at the sound of his own steps on the frosty crust beneath his feet; and dread to look over his shoulder, lest he should behold some uncouth being tramping close behind him!
GL ¡Cantas veces se lle conxelou o sangue co son que producían os seus propios pasos ó pisa-lo chan xeado! ¡Cantas veces temeu mirar cara a atrás por medo a atopar con algún ser horrible que lle fose pisando os talóns!
