and it returns

I was 37 years old and was sitting in the seat of a Boeing 747. The giant plane went through thick rain clouds and was about to land at Hamburg Airport. The cold November rains dyed the earth darkly, with the mechanics wearing raincoats, flags standing on flat-top airport buildings, BMW billboards and everything else shining pictures of the Flemish sect. It looked like the background. Oh, I thought, Germany again.

I was 37 years old and sat in a Boeing 747. The giant plane was descending through thick rainclouds and landing at Hamburg airport. The cold November rain darkened the earth, making the coat-clad mechanics, the flags atop the plain airport building, the BMW billboard, and everything else look like the backdrop of a gloomy Flemish painting. Oh dear, Germany again, I thought.

It seems that Google is changing these undocumentary APIs, the happened to another API a few days ago. The API used by this lib also happened today. Moreover, this API seems to be unstable at the moment, with intermittent 500 errors. Has anyone else had this problem?

It happened yesterday. The request rate is more limit and quality is reduce.

Test text

"I was 37 then, strapped in my seat as the huge 747 plunged through dense cloud cover on approach to Hamburg airport. Cold November rains drenched the earth, lending everything the gloomy air of a Flemish landscape: the ground crew in waterproofs, a flag atop a squat airport building, a BMW billboard. So - Germany again."

google official web translate result:

当時私は37歳で、巨大な747がハンブルク空港への進入で厚い雲を突き抜けて急降下するのを座席で見ていた。11月の冷たい雨が地面を濡らし、防水服を着た地上係員、ずんぐりとした空港ビルの頂上の旗、BMWの看板など、すべてがフランドル地方の風景の陰鬱な雰囲気を醸し出していた。そう、またドイツだ。

私は37歳でしたが、ハンブルク空港へのアプローチで巨大な747が密集した雲の覆いを突き抜けたので、私は席に縛り付けられました。寒い11月の雨が地球をびしょぬれにし、フランドルの風景の悲観的な空気をすべて貸し出しました。防水の地上乗組員、スクワット空港の建物の上の旗、BMWの看板。だから - ドイツも再び。

This seems to be more a case of the API endpoint different than a literary interpretation.
