{{Tr|unknown hands}} This translation begins: "On one of the planets that orbits the star named Sirius there lived a spirited young man, who I had the honour of meeting on the last voyage he made to our little anthill. He was called Micromégas, a fitting name for anyone so great. He was eight leagues tall - 24,000 yards."
