I love these two stories but I found the Samuel Butler translation to be quite hard to read: all of the flow and rhythm of the story felt lost and the way in which it was written was hard to follow and somewhat stilted at times. Really a shame because I do love these tales. Hopefully other translations do the stories more justice.
