Explanation:

Alors cela aurait un sens car les verrues sont sovent associées aux crapauds et sorcières puissances du mal.
Bon courage!

Pustules du tombeau


Explanation:
D'accord avec Chaplin sur "wart" plutôt que "wort"
On peut aussi penser à "pustules cadavériques", ou "pustules tombales", ou "verrues funèbres"!
Bon appétit!
