EN Then you'd pass by this long, long, Indian war canoe, about as long as three goddam Cadillacs in a row, with about twenty Indians in it, some of them paddling, some of them just standing around looking tough, and they all had war paint all over their faces.
PT Passáva-mos por uma canoa de guerra índia, mais comprida que três Cadillacs em fila, com vinte índios lá dentro, todos a remar, alguns em pé, com aspecto decidido, com os rostos pintados a muitas cores.

EN Against the walls stood companies of barbells and Indian clubs; the dumbbells were piled in one corner: and in the midst of countless hillocks of gymnasium shoes and sweaters and singlets in untidy brown parcels there stood the stout leather-jacketed vaulting horse waiting its turn to be carried up on the stage and set in the middle of the winning team at the end of the gymnastic display.
PT Encostadas às paredes estavam companhias de pesos e massas indianas; os halteres empilhavam-se a um canto; entre as inumeráveis pilhas de sandálias, de camisolas, de calções enrodilhados, escuros e sujos, estava o descomunal cavalo com arções, maciço e revestido de couro, aguardando o momento de ser levado para o palco e colocado no centro da equipa vencedora, no final dos exercícios de ginástica.
