EN One moment more, with her head raised, she listened, as if she waited for some habitual sound, some regular mechanical sound; and then, hearing something rhythmical, half said, half chanted, beginning in the garden, as her husband beat up and down the terrace, something between a croak and a song, she was soothed once more, assured again that all was well, and looking down at the book on her knee found the picture of a pocket knife with six blades which could only be cut out if James was very careful.
PT Um momento ainda, de cabeça erguida, ficou escutando, como se esperasse um qualquer som habitual, um qualquer som mecânico e regular; e, logo, ouvindo algo de ritmado, meio dito, meio cantado, iniciando-se no jardim enquanto o marido caminhava de cá para lá no terraço, algo que ficava entre um grasnido e uma canção, Mrs Ramsay voltava a acalmar-se, de novo certificada de que tudo ia bem, e então, olhando para o livro que tinha sobre os joelhos, descobriu a figura de um canivete de seis lâminas, que apenas poderia ser recortada se James fosse muito cuidadoso.
