English to Portuguese Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
"[Panama's] best hope for protection [against pirates] lay in the fact that the journey to reach it was a nightmare: Mountains, deep rivers, swamps thick with fever mist, warlike maroons, sudden violent rains and carnivorous animals waited for anyone brave enough to attempt it."

Obrigada a todos.
