     Puz-me a tremer com violencia e a bater os dentes. Percebi que aquella attitude me condemnava e esforcei-me por cerrar os queixos e dominar os musculos, o que não consegui.

     I started to shiver violently and gnashing my teeth. I realized that doing so harmed me and made an effort to close my jaw and take control of my muscles, which I could not do.
