As this horse approached, and as I watched for it to appear through the dusk, I remembered certain of Bessie's tales, wherein figured a North-of-England spirit called a "Gytrash," which, in the form of horse, mule, or large dog, haunted solitary ways, and sometimes came upon belated travellers, as this horse was now coming upon me.
Mientras procuraba distinguir entre la penumbra la aparición del caballo, evocaba ciertas historias de Bessie en las que figuraba un espíritu de los países del Norte de Inglaterra, el Gytrash, que en forma de caballo, mula o perro gigantesco, recorría los caminos solitarios y asaltaba a los viajeros.
