English to Portuguese: The Outwitted Teacher General field: Art/Literary
Source text - English THERE WAS ONCE a village teacher in a country that need not be named here. This teacher was afflicted with partial blindness. He had been deprived of one eye as the result of infection from a dog with ophthalmia, which he had cared for. His blind eye had been taken out, and a glass one had been inserted in its socket in its stead .It felt hard to the touch, but was, in fact, quite comfortable. And it wore well.
Now the teachers in this country were a very happy-go lot; and it was quite usual for their pupils to be left alone for hours on end, while their masters gossiped with the neighbours.
Translation - Portuguese Havia um professor de uma vila na zona rural, cujo nome não convém mencionar. Esse professor que era parcialmente cego. Perdera uma vista numa infecção contraída de um cachorro com oftalmia, que estivera em seus cuidados. O olho cego foi removido e substituído por um de vidro. Era duro ao toque, mas era bem confortável, e até lhe ficava bem.
Ora, os professores desse país eram uma turma muito boa-vida e não havia nada de extraordinário em os alunos ficarem sozinhos por horas a fio enquanto os mestres fofocavam com os vizinhos.
