== The original text ==
 
 
 
''[[Der Krumme Teufel]]'' ("The Lame Devil" or "The Limping Devil") is a  ''Singspiel''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singspiel]  in two acts by Joseph Felix von Kurz (1717-1784)[https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Felix_von_Kurz], with music by Joseph Haydn  (1732-1809)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Haydn]. First performed ca. 1751, but banned after 2 performances, but was performed again in 1752, and a revised version, ''[[Der Neue Krumme Teufel]]'' ("The Return of the Lame Devil" or literally "The New Limping Devil"), was  performed in 1757 or 1758, and published ca. 1760.
 
 
 
It would appear that another revised,  three act,  version entitled ''[[Asmodeus der Krumme Teufel]]'' was then written by Von Kurz, published and printed by Johann Thomas Edlen von Trattnern, in 1770.

[[F.C.L. Bosman]] (1928[http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/bosm012dram01_01/]: p. 129) suggests that the 1770 text may possibly have been translated into French as ''[[Asmodée, ou La Philosophie du Díable]]'' for performance in South Africa.
