CREATIVE TRANSLATION (RLA) The old wizard has finally left me alone, His spirit servants will now fulfill my commands! I have studied his words, his symbols, and his gestures! I can perform the same miracles with my own genius! Broom! You have always been my slave! I know things that do things! I command you to do my bidding! Use your own mind! Use your own legs! Do fingers! Go and fill the water pots! Go to the river! Wash stuff! Quickly now! Clean the floor! Once! And again! Then once more! And once again, and ... damn, me, I have forgotten how to turn you off?! How do I get you to stop? Stop? STOP! STAWP!!! PLEASE??? (no more wash???) The place is scrubbed with maelstroms and cyclones and hurricanes!!! The place is a hellish flood, I am drowning! (IS THAT A SHARK???) This cursed broom! It has no ears to hear me! Stand STILL! Where is my axe? I would split you into KINDLING! STAWP! AW! FAWK! EACH SPLINTER BECOMES ANOTHER MOP!!! Woe is me! Such powerful hoodooge...
