I took Latin in high school. I won't get them exactly right, but hopefully it will be close enough. There are a couple words in there (e.g., "die?") that I will need to get a little internet help with, but it seems to be sentences rather than paragraphs.

Die in Latin is often pronounced these days as "Dee- ay". (Goodness knows how it was pronounced in Roman days.)

Thanks, Todd

Here are your notes:

0:00: Your opening silence is too long. It's supposed to be "no more than 0.5 to 1 second", and yours is about 2.7 seconds.
4:37: "Schem. 6, Fig. 7" is a side-note, and should be removed.
13:48: This gap is a bit too long, and should be cut down.
26:18: "Schem. 6, Fig. 10" is a side-note, and should be removed.

All three fixed. Thank you. Also got rid of the harsh treble.

Thanks Jim, I just have one note:

36:00, 36:22: If you look at the Scheme mentioned, there is an actual 'Fig. &'. It's not a typo.Image
I would read these as 'Figure ampersand'.
