Title	Fragment de la description du mont Atlas
Text Submitted by CocoT	Source language: Francuski Translated by chronotribe [Le mont Atlas] est tout entier silencieux pendant le jour et, solitaire, il n'est pas sans susciter de l'effroi ; mais [la nuit] il est illuminÃ© par des feux nocturnes et rÃ©sonne de toute part des choeurs d'Egipans ; on entend le chant des flutes et le tintement des cymbales le long des rivages de la mer.
Remarks about the translation	Il s'agit d'un passage tirÃ© du chapitre XXIV des Merveilles du Monde de Caius Julius Solinus, oÃ¹ est dÃ©crit le mont Atlas. Il faut lire "choris aegipanum" [abl.] et non "chorus". J'ai traduit "per oram maritimam" par "le long de, etc.", l'idÃ©e est sans doute que l'on peut entendre rÃ©sonner les instruments jusqu'aux rivages = Ã travers le rivage.

Title	Mount Atlas
Translation Engleski Translated by Efylove	Target language: Engleski [Mount Atlas] is entirely silent during the day and, isolated, it arouses horror; [at night] it is enlightened by nocturnal fires and it echoes everywhere with the choirs of Aegipans; you can hear the singing of flutes and the tinkle of cymbals along the seashore.
Remarks about the translation	Cap. XXIV, Caius Julius Solinus, "De Mirabilibus Mundi". He's talking about Mount Atlas. Literally: "it isn't isolated without horror"; "the singing of flutes and the tinkle of cymbals are heard". "Per oram maritimam" = you can hear the singing of these instruments even along the seashore.
