تَكَادُ it is almost
A special verb meaning 'is on the verge of / almost', which works by governing another verb after it: it tells you the second action nearly happened. It does not stand alone in meaning; it modifies the verb that follows, here saying the subsiding came close but barely occurred. With the negator before it the sense is 'scarcely subsided'.
