It took just as much effort to get back to where he had been earlier, but when he lay there sighing, and was once more watching his legs as they struggled against each other even harder than before, if that was possible, he could think of no way of bringing peace and order to this chaos. He told himself once more that it was not possible for him to stay in bed and that the most sensible thing to do would be to get free of it in whatever way he could at whatever sacrifice.
Pero como, jadeando después de semejante esfuerzo, seguía allí tumbado igual que antes, y veía sus patitas de nuevo luchando entre sí, quizá con más fuerza aún, y no encontraba posibilidad de poner sosiego y orden a este atropello, se decía otra vez que de ningún modo podía permanecer en la cama y que lo más sensato era sacrificarlo todo, si es que con ello existía la más mínima esperanza de liberarse de ella.
