Title
Bitumen naphtha is a kind of liquid
Translation
Engels

Translated by gbernsdorff
Target language: Engels

Bitumen naphtha is a kind of liquid: it flows into the sea from the mountains of Sicily and floats on top of the waves. Seamen collect it with sponges and, after squeezing them out, they store it in pots for people to use it in various ways.
Remarks about the translation
*recundunt* doesn't make sense, must be a typo.
*recondunt* means *they store/they stow away*
