Section 26 the Section Title in the MW doesn't match the book. Should be "Schwemmel". You have "Schlemiel" (as in Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!” :mrgreen: If you get that reference then you are showing your age as I am. :P After you edit the Section Title you...

With librivox down a while (for me) I have two sections in the can for you: https://librivox.org/uploads/brownrottger/nibelungenlied_25_needler_128kb.mp3 11:11 https://librivox.org/uploads/brownrottger/nibelungenlied_26_needler_128kb.mp3 25:49 Kriemhild sets up luring Hagen into her clutches!! --Kurt

Section 18 is PL ok. H could've just killed him in the hunt and none would have been the wiser! Yeah, seemed like a a lot of plotting just to get Siegfried to take his weapons off. Time (sniff) for Kriemhild to grieve: https://librivox.org/uploads/brownrottger/nibelungenlied_19_needler_128kb.mp3 23...

Sections 15-17 is PL ok. Now let me get these details straight 1. S (invisible) helps G (with G's consent and knowledge) consummate marriage with B by force. During which S steals G's ring from B's hand. 2. K shows ring to B and starts a fight saying you B are a harlot because you slept with my hus...

Now its getting interesting!

This one's a shorty. I guess Siegfried likes to cheat giants too!:
