blighted

"Hester gazed after him a little while, looking with a half-fantastic curiosity
to see whether the tender grass of early spring would not be blighted beneath
him and show the wavering track of his footsteps..."
Bantam Classic
pg.170

I think this means destroyed or crushed.

  1. Dictionary.com said it means to destroy, ruin or frustrate, so I was right.
