peer agreement (net): +4given way to sleep Explanation: After looking at the whole poem, I think this is may be closer to the intended meaning. The phrase comes at the end of the poem when everything is sort of coming to an end: "Las nubes están tristes; tristes, los árboles viejos, sobre la mesa de mimbre el baile ha dejado al sueño." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 25 mins (2021-02-18 19:53:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "The clouds are sad; Sad, the aged trees, on the wicker table the dance has given way to sleep." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 30 mins (2021-02-18 19:58:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The meaning of "give way" in this sense is a bit like "ceder" in Spanish... https://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/give-...
