Okay, I've finished what appears to be the longest section of the entire work:
Section 19 (Book IV, Part 3: The Senses and Mental Pictures).

There were two OCR errors I found in this section:

"wormword" should be "wormwood"
"piecing lustre" should be "piercing lustre"

I apologize for the slightly muffled sound quality of the final 20 minutes or so. I did the entire recording session with my microphone's protective cloth cover still on the microphone!

(The way I sit to record, my microphone is hidden behind my pop filter.) I was hoping to avoid having to redo that entire recording session, but let me know if I need to.

Thanks!

Perfect, Dan!

Section 19: PL OK

In my view, there is no problem with the sound quality in any portion of the track. I see no need to record again. Glad to have you back!

Hi, Dan--

Section 21:
--At ~12:47 There is a transposition. Text shows "Wherefore the more are they at pains to hide..."--but I hear "Wherefore the more they are at pains to hide..."

Well, if I ever doubted the truth of the old maxim "Love is blind", I can now refer to the numerous examples in this section!

Thanks for catching the transposition! I'll get a "fix" uploaded soon.
