The bug-shaped Eagle was so fragile a child could poke a hole through its gold foil exterior.
Eagle, la nave con forma de insecto, era tan frágil que hasta un niño podría haberle hecho un orificio en su capa externa de oro.
It was shallow, no more than a foot covering the mud for everywhere reeds poked through, waving in the light breeze, but the soft ground beneath must have been saturated.
No debía de tener más de dos palmos de profundidad, pues aquí y allí se veían cañas que se mecían en la suave brisa de la mañana, pero el terreno blando de debajo debía de estar saturado.
