Note: Translated by an unknown hand.
This translation begins:
" It is a terrible night, the wind is on the rampage and the rain is falling in torrents.
The roaring gale bends the trees of the Volsinian coast and smashes against the slopes of the mountains of Crimma. Along the shore, the rocks are ceaselessly battered by the waves of the vast Megalocride Sea."
This translation was first published in 1968 under the title The Ordeal of Doctor Trifulgas in the New English Library anthology Legends for the Dark.
