This is my first recording for LibriVox. I'm always looking for free public-domain audiobooks and I thought that I should start giving back.

Norah and Greg - thanks, got it!

Robert - just emailed you - didn't get the link to yousendit. May I also have the name under which you'd like to be listed on the LibriVox catalogue, plus a personal URL to which we should link, if you have one. :)

What a great poem! Plus the advice is even better than what Polonius gave to Laertes...

OK, here's my attempt:

This is my first attempt, both at reading for Librivox and at using Audacity, and I've done minimal file processing. Suggestions and comments welcomed, privately please!

Peter and I first met this poem in Kipling's excellent so-called "children's book" Rewards and Fairies. One of these days, we'll post that as a book to read - the stories are really wonderful.

(Gee, can you tell I'm a Kipling fan?)

Feel free to use my full name, and my webpage, www.stanford.edu/~ceastman .

I suppose it would be rude for me to make a suggestion and then not bother to do the recording wouldn?t it?

Thanks, Kara.

Here I am again, submitting right on the deadline for the second week running!

I had a couple of goes at this one, and I'm not sure whether this is really the best of them, but hopefully someone will like it. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to submit something for this real classic, even at the risk of not doing it justice (something which is probably pretty nearly impossible, actually

).

Enjoy!

Thanks, Linton!

This project is now closed. Thanks for everyone's contributions - come back for next week's poem! :)
