   • 1908, Recordos da feira de San Martiño:

     En difrentes sitios da carballeira estaban as pulpeirías cos seus caldeiros cobrizos acugulados de pulpo, postos a ferver riba de grandes fogueiras que envolvían en nubes de fume a feira toda i ameazaban afogar á xente menos á pulpeira que polo visto tiña agallas de tiburón e polo mesmo non lle impidía de rogar ca súa mercancía berrando: «¡Comprádeme o pulpooo...! ¡Ai que rico é, mociños..., ai que rícooo...!»

     At diverse places along the oak grove there were octopus post, with their bronze cauldrons overflowing with octopuses boiling over large bonfires which covered in smoke clouds all the fair, and menaced to choke all of the attendants with the exception of the cook, who apparently had shark gills which allowed her to advertise her merchandise shouting "Buy my octopus...! It's so delicious, boys... so delicious!"
