sect 68 The Dance
Duration: 0:42

TYIA for any corrections or suggestions.
These are PL OK
BTW, I ran all 35 sections that I had to PL through Checker -- took all of 20 secs.
So, easy, and saves the BC a ton of work.

Here are some recordings for you -
Lynda,
I've marked most of your sections PL OK, ignoring the minor stuff.
Here are your PL notes for the other sections:

Section 20
1:04 Text: “Life—from my heart” I hear “Light—from my heart”

Section 21
0:58 Text: “All my wise guile” I hear, “All my wise gill.” A different word.
Guile rhymes with mile.
Section 22
0:35 Text: “your lips’ pale line” I hear, “their lips’ pale line”
1:03 Text: “Shadow to all your sun.” I hear, “Shadow to all your sin.”

Section 24:
0:25 – 0:28 Text: “Simply to be, Palpitant” [pal-pi-tant] I hear “Simple to be, Palipant [pal-i-pant] which isn’t even a word and obscures the meaning.
0:50 - 0:53 repeat, missed edit “This is enough, to see the song begun”

Section 63
0:55 Text: “And your tremulous lips;” I hear, “And your tremendulous lips;” [extra syllable in there]

Whoops!

A backlog of 35 sections, just like that!
Ain't it wonderful? :clap:

But, I saw that I had two sections that I had added, but didn't get on my reading list. :oops: I hope that I can get those in tomorrow, then we might make this one by the end of January, pending my PL and a few corrections.

Larry -

You know everyone can make mistakes including yourself. I would check the file you uploaded for Section 70. It seems to be prior to edits.

Of course anyone can make a mistake, or mistakes, including myself :mrgreen: That is why EVERYONE has someone else PL their recordings. I get my share of PL notes on my recordings as carefully as I try to edit. If I uploaded an unedited file, it wouldn't be the first time.

But, ONLY the BC,PL, or MC should be downloading files. That is clearly stated in big red letters. Please don't do that, Lynda.

Excellent job on these corrections, Lynda! Well, except for Section 63 where I still here an extra syllable: trem-u-lous is the word, and I still here tre-men-u-lous -- without the "d" now, but still an extra syllable.

I'll mark them all PL OK, and leave it up to you to make the above correction. Otherwise, we'll just consider it a variant pronunciation, I guess. (I've adjusted the times in the MW)

Thanks for sticking with it, and the quick turn around. :D
