no English translation located. No published English translation of this text was located in the catalogues and series checked. Where only a non-English rendering or a translation of a daughter version exists, it is recorded below and does not close the gap. Treat this as a gap candidate, not as proof that no translation exists; the evidence names every source checked.

Why this is in the register

Coptic Scriptorium's TEI header records translation 'none' (urn:cts:copticLit:shenoute.thundered.amelineau:26-41; Amelineau, Oeuvres de Schenoudi 2:134-143). The standard English selection, Brakke, Selected Discourses of Shenoute the Great (CUP 2015; HOLLIS) - whose contents I checked - does not include this discourse. The local corpus metadata in /srv/christian-corpus/coptic also lists it among Shenoute texts with no translation. HOLLIS 'Shenoute discourses translation' returns Brakke and French studies only. No English translation located.

One TEI file; codex MONB.GG (Naples, Biblioteca Nazionale, Borgia IB7 ff. 4-8). Amelineau's 1907 edition is the only text; Emmel's reconstruction work is not a translation.

Existing translations recorded

None recorded in English. Non-English versions, where they exist, are named in the evidence above.
