Hello

Section 17//Loves Me? Loves Me Not?: PL-Notes:
Poem is fine, lovely read

It only needs several edits (mainly, max silence allowed+ disclaimer at the begining and add 5 secs at the end too).
Please check main page also.

[ No more than 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of the recording!
Make sure you add the abbreviated "LibriVox disclaimer" to the beginning of the poems:
"[Poem title], by Dora Sigerson Shorter, read for LibriVox.org by [your name]" or some variation on that, adding date, location, your personal URL, etc., if you wish.
• Then read the poem.
• At the end, say: "End of poem. This recording is in the public domain." and leave five seconds of silence]

EDIT: Section 22: PL-Notes: idem, see above. Thanks

p.s. Latin, oh, latin
A super sidenote (in case you'd like to know, sorry if I don't) -:pacem /pa ʧ em/ + dicit /di ʧ it/ (usually, ce-, ci- =ʧe, ʧi)
Thanks,
Denise

Sorry, I don't know much about Latin or the phonetics notation system. I went to a website that purports to provide correct audio pronunciation, so I was just going by that. And what the heck, the only guy speaking Latin these days is the Pope and he only uses it to ask for an espresso.

haha I am not even sure the Pope speaks it...!

I only wanted to let you know, hope I didn't step on your toes...
But, I could buy you an espresso if you wish, next time you and I happen to be at the same time in Italy.
We'll ask for it in Latin, imagine the face of the waiter

Pacem, Jeremiah

Denise

thank you denise!

re latin, there is a difference between classical and ecclesiastical latin. 'pace' for instance in classical latin is pronounced pake, while ecclesiastical latin softens the c towards pache. both are correct as far as librivox is concerned, for the reason jeremiah so eloquently stated
