The World's Best Poetry, Volume 3: Sorrow and Consolation, Part II by Various ( - ).

This project is now complete and can be found in our catalog here: https://librivox.org/the-worlds-best-poetry-volume-3-part-2/
This is the third of ten volumes of poetry edited by Canadian poet laureate Bliss Carman (1861-1929). This collection, the second of two parts, includes a range of famous poems relating to such topics as comfort and cheer; death and bereavement; and consolation. ( Tomas Peter)
  1. How to claim a part, and "how it all works" here To find a section to record, simply look at point 5. below at the sections. All the ones without names beside them are "up for grabs." Click "Post reply" at the top left of the screen and tell us which section you would like to read (include the section number from the left-most column in the reader list, please). Read points 6. to 8. below for what to do before, during and after your recording.
  2. New to recording? Please read our Newbie Guide to Recording!
  3. Is there a deadline? We ask that you submit your recorded sections within 1-2 months of placing your claim. Please note that to be fair to the readers who have completed their sections in a timely way, if you haven't submitted your recording(s) after two months, your sections will automatically be re-opened for other readers to claim, unless you post in this thread to request an extension. Extensions will be granted at the discretion of the Book Coordinator. If you cannot do your section, for whatever reason, just let me know and it'll go back to the pool. There's no shame in this; we're all volunteers and things happen.Please do not sign up for more sections than you can complete within the two month deadline.
  4. Where do I find the text? Source text (please only read from this text!): https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16786

ok I see you post them all, so here are mine. Hopefully they don't overlap too much with you and Gaby:

I also hope I did not mix up the Section Numbers, as I had to count the poems myself, since there was no MW yet. Well I guess it's the poem's name that is important.

First our two quartets:

72. The Death of Minnehaha: Narrator
89. Selections from In Memoriam: Time and Eternity / The Poet's Tribute

And here is my preliminary wishlist then, ordered in the 4 categories you proposed:

Category A. Poems I’d really like to read:

First my Top10 favourites (in order of absolute preference) I took away Death the Leveller, as that was Lian’s first choice.

97. If I Should Die Tonight
84. The Passage
11. The Changed Cross
52. The First Snow-Fall
139. The Secret of Death
24. The Saddest Fate
102. Habeas Corpus
143. The Green Grass under the Snow
69. Farewell to Thee, Araby's Daughter
4. Invictus

And to make my choice of 36 complete, here are the others I’d like to consider (in no order of preference)

6. Sad is our Youth, for it is ever going
8. The Rainy Day
21. The Good Great Man
22. When my Ship Comes in
23. Never Despair

46. The Quaker Graveyard
54. The Widow's Mite
59. Sonnet
60. Jeune Fille et Jeune Fleur
64. The Unillumined Verge
73. Mother and Poet
86. Home they brought her Warrior dead
92. Break break break
110. Love and Death
115. Hush
119. The Bottom Drawer
132. Lines
134. In Memoriam F.A.S.
137. Christus Consolator
141. Footsteps of Angels
142. Happy are the Dead
149. There is no Death
152. The Death of Death

Category B. Poems I also like, in case my first choice has been claimed by others:

5. Afar in the Desert
10. Compensation
15. Sonnet
16. Waiting

Well, I thought of doing Excel, but comparing our two lists, it doesn't seem as though the task of assigning sections will be too difficult. Once Gaby has hers in, I will see if any immediate assignments can be made based on our top choices.

woah cool work already !!! And I got many of my first choices :9: :9: Thanks so much

as for the ones that we both want, I think I will be very flexible there. I noticed you gave me already 30 of my top wishes, so I think it's fair I relinquish the ones that are in the "double-list".

I'll check them out tomorrow in detail and give alternate options :)

good night

Thank you, Sonia. :9: I've edited the lists now so that there are only a couple poems left for contention.

you can take me off the "double list". I don't need these three poems, I'll take three others from my list no worries. As long as I don't need to do any of my D-List LOL

I will be on vacation from Wednesday 27 March till Sunday 14 April
and unable to PL during that time. Thank you for your patience.

Okay, I've done so. :) I assume you also meant that I can give Gaby those poems from "In Memoriam," as well?
