translated by Alexander Gross	translated by Max Knight	translated by R. Platteau	translated by Hans Eiseneck

A Werewolf, troubled by his name,	One night, a banshee slunk away	Un loup-garou, une certaine nuit,	Un hechicero, con esposa
Left wife and brood one night and came	from mate and child, and in the gloom	Laissa sa moitié et puis se rendit	vino un día a la fosa
To a hidden graveyard to enlist	went to a village teacher’s tomb,	Auprès de la tombe d’un maître d’école	de su maestro, y al profesor
The aid of a long-dead philologist.	requesting him: “Inflect me, pray.”	Et lui dit, “ sur moi dis tout, c’est ton rôle ! ”	pidió: “¿Me cuentas? ¡Por favor!”

“Oh sage, wake up, please don’t berate me,”	The village teacher climbed up straight	Un loup-garou, une certaine nuit,	El profesor sin vacilar
He howled sadly, “Just conjugate me.”	upon his grave stone with its plate	Laissa sa moitié et puis se rendit	subió y comenzó a hablar.
The seer arose a bit unsteady	and to the apparition said	Auprès de la tombe d’un maître d’école	Desde allá de su letrero
Yawned twice, wheezed once, and then was ready.	who meekly knelt before the dead:	Et lui dit, “ sur moi dis tout, c’est ton rôle ! ”	se dirigió al hechicero:

“Well, ‘Werewolf’ is your plural past,	“The banSHEE, in the subject’s place;	“ - On peut à ton sujet puisque nous y sommes	“El hechiuno” le explica,
While ‘Waswolf’ is singularly cast:	the banHERS, the possessive case.	Se demander encor bien des choses en somme.	“el hechidos” después indica,
There’s ‘Amwolf’ too, the present tense,	The banHER, next, is what they call	Loup-garoù ? mais avant	“el hechitres” dice al fin,
And ‘Iswolf,’ ‘Arewolf’ in this same sense.”	objective case--and that is all.”	Il faut se dire : loup-garquand ?	“con eso basta ¡chiquitín!”

“I know that--I’m no mental cripple--	The banshee marveled at the cases	Loup-garcomment ? et puis	El hechicero, conmovido
The future form and participle	and writhed with pleasure, making faces,	Bien évidemment loup-garqui ? ”	por lo que capta su oído,
Are what I crave,” the beast replied.	but said: “You did not add, so far,	Toutes ces questions semblèrent au loup bien absconses,	al maestro ruega, encantado,
The scholar paused--again he tried:	the plural to the singular!”	Car en fait ce qu’il voulait c’était les réponses.	que le adjunte un quebrado.

“A ‘Will-be-wolf?’ It’s just too long:	The teacher, though, admitted then	“ - Point de réponses, dit le puits de savoir,	Pero el profesor confiesa
‘Shall-be-wolf?’ ‘Has-been-wolf?’ Utterly wrong!	that this was not within his ken.	Etre imaginaire, nul ne peut te voir ! ”	que nada sabe con certeza:
Such words are wounds beyond all suture--	“While bans are frequent”, he advised,	A ces mots l’animal éclata tout en larmes.	“Hay muchos hechos. Hechiceros
I’m sorry, but you have no future.”	“A she cannot be plurized.”	“ - Oh!, même les baisers de ma douce moitié	únicamente hay enteros.”

The Werewolf knew better--his sons still slept	The banshee, rising clammily,	Ne pourrons plus me faire me sentir tout entier.	El brujo se volvió muy triste:
At home, and homewards now he crept,	wailed: “What about my family?”	Rester un loup-garou est un sort qui m’alarme. ”	“Mi cara mitad, ¿no la viste?”
Happy, humble, without apology	Then, being not a learned creature,	Mais comme le loup était bien poli	Ya que no era sabio
For such folly of philology.	said humbly “Thanks” and left the teacher.	Il remercia et puis repartit.	con gratitud se despidió.
