English term or phrase: please see "context" box
This phrase comes from "The Handsomest Drowned Man In The World" by Gabriel
Garcia Marquez. It is difficult to find the story in languages other than English and
Spanish where I live, which is why I am trying my luck with this! As there is not enough
room for the complete translation in the 殿nswer
