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
PEMM story records 69 and 70 (query 2026-11-13) list only Amharic published translations (Täsfa Giyorgis 1931; Täsfa Gäbrä Śəllase 1990/1996/2004), a French one (Colin 2004) and unpublished English drafts by PEMM staff; neither has a published English translation. They appear in 194 and 199 of PEMM's 716 complete manuscripts (earliest c. 1450): https://pemm.princeton.edu/en-us/stories/69 and /70. The Beta Masaheft records list only Colin2004TaamraMaryam under translations. Neither story is among the 110 translated by Budge (PEMM's Budge records do not cover them). HOLLIS 'Ethiopian miracles of Mary translation' returns no English version of this text: https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Ethiopian%20miracles%20of%20Mary%20translation&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 LOC 'taamra maryam translation' returns nothing relevant.
A two-part narrative of 1,000–2,000 words each, among the most frequently copied non-European-opening miracles; PEMM classifies the origin as 'Africa (probably)'. The Geʿez incipit of part 1 begins 'ወሀሎ፡ አሐዱ፡ ብእሲ፡ ዘስሙ፡ ማርቆስ፡ ዘነግሠ፡ በሮምያ'; part 2 begins 'ወሀሎ፡ አሐዱ፡ ሊቀ፡ ጳጳሳት፡ ዘስሙ፡ ዲዮናስዮስ፡ በሀገረ፡ ሮምያ'.

Scan search: open scan — 3 candidate(s). PEMM attests story 69 (LIT3646Miracle) in 194 manuscript records and story 70 (LIT3647Miracle) in 189; for both, the digitised open witnesses are the EMIP codices above. Beta maṣāḥǝft's own LIT3646Miracle and LIT3647Miracle pages show no witnesses, but the HMML catalogue has many more (e.g. EMML 2275 f. 228r, EMML 5520 f. 121r, EMML 6938 f. 105v, LOC 'AMED-DC 6 s. 107') — the EMML ones are login-gated at vHMML. The 1963 Täsfa Gäbrä Śǝllase Taʾammǝra Māryām (Geʿez + Amharic, BetMas edition reference) is not among the IA hits for taamra/taammera maryam (0 results).
