ridiculous talk

Der Anblick dieses Dings und die Erinnerung an das lächerliche Gerede darum, besonders seine Behauptung, daß es durch Generationen auf ihn gekommen sei, was unmöglich war, da es ja eine Nachbildung seiner Zwergengestalt war, erboste mich so sehr, daß ich mich daranmachte, es abzunehmen, mit der ernstlichen Absicht, es in die Quelle zu werfen.
The sight of the thing and the memory of his ridiculous talk about it, especially of its assertion that it had come down to him through the ages, which it could not have done, seeing that it was a likeness of himself, irritated me so much that I proceeded to take it off with the full intention of throwing it into the spring.
