Section 11 PL Notes:

Missing lines (in bold) at:
- 04:02 - "But the admiration of wealth in many countries goes far beyond this; it ceases to regard in any degree the skill of acquisition; it respects wealth in the hands of the inheritor just as much as in the hands of the maker; it is a simple envy and love of a heap of gold as a heap of gold.
- 10:30 - If we remember the great reverence which used to be paid to nobility as such, we shall be surprised that the House of Lords as an assembly, has always been inferior; that it was always just as now, not the first, but the second of our assemblies.
Repeats at:
- 16:21-16:27 "I confess this doctrine..."
  18:32-18:39 "Aristocratic influence..."
  25:50-25:52 "possibly a disputer..."
Outro should say "End of Section 11"

Section 12 PL Notes:

Missing text (in bold) at:
- 14:20 - "The Lords are in several respects more independent than the Commons; their judgment may not be so good a judgment, but it is emphatically their own judgment."
- 14:29 - "The House of Lords, as a body, is accessible to no social bribe. And this, in our day, is no light matter."

Gap of silence 18:02-18:06

Footnote should be inserted at 19:00 and removed at 19:41 - "In accordance with a recent resolution of the House of Lords proxies are now disused.—Note to second edition."

I am at your disposal, if you need these re-read.

thank you, but i hope not, it would be such a shame to let ginas reading go to waste. it is difficult with omitted phrases though. i might be able to paste something in but i dont know..
