Al mismo tiempo me recorrió un impulso paternalista, o quizá aquí cabría decir «maternalista»: seguí agarrándola de la mano, demasiado fuerte, con la esperanza, la vana esperanza, de que eso la protegiera, como uno de esos amuletos que venden los morabitos, la mantuviera a salvo de los malos espíritus, de cuya existencia ya no dudaba.
At the same time a paternalistic—or perhaps I should write here “maternalistic”—impulse surged through me: I kept hold of her hand, too tightly, in the hope, the irrational hope, that it would—like some cheap charm bought off a marabout—confer protection, keep her safe from evil spirits, whose existence in the world I no longer doubted.
