“Cada vez a cousa engorda, como que incha a ollos vistos, Pro, si incha, non estoura; como o pelexo enteirizo da castaña agüenta e fofa pra levála o enemincho; Cando máis, si algo rebenta, e arregaña, é o ourizo, pra guindar limpa a castaña e roer fruto tan rico”
The thing grows at every time, as it swells in plain sight, but, although it swells, it does not burst; as the one-piece peel of the soft watery chestnuts you take to an enemy; at most, if something pops and cracks is the burr, to throw clean the chestnut and nibble such a rich fruit
