I have one note, or perhaps more of a query, for section 37. It's at 3.03-3.07, the second stanza on p. 27 or near the bottom of p. 2.
...the eccentricity
Of Saints and early Christians who try

Yeah ... that's a local thing and way I've always said it!

However, to make it correct, here is a fixed version:

I did wonder about that! The pronunciation websites are really helpful, but they're still a bit of a blunt tool and do tend to promote the idea that there is a single acceptable pronunciation. Well, it's marked PL OK, and I've learned something new.

"Eight More Bucolic Poems by Edith Sitwell"

I am a little confused by this title. Does she mean "an additional eight bucolic poems", or "eight poems that are more bucolic" (than her previous bucolic poems)?

Cheers

You're off the hook with me as my people speak pure generic american, so we have no excuse ...

6.44-6.47. P. 104, section IV. Omission:
...these
Thoughts are [as] thick as peas!'"

7.47-7.50. P. 105, V.
As [heard And] thick as the daisies in the sky...

11.59-12.01. P. 110, VIII.
Seems [heard Seem] cornucopias of fruits;

34 for spot pl!

She leaves this open for interpretation very, very meaningfully, with a twitch of her cigarette holder.

Hi Erin,

These three are (as usual) perfectly PL OK!

Yes, quite the whirlwind of poetic recording ..... which inspires me to leave you with these thoughts by R. Frost:

No speed of wind or water rushing by
But you have speed far greater. You can climb
Back up a stream of radiance to the sky,
And back through history up the stream of time.
And you were given this swiftness, not for haste
Nor chiefly that you may go where you will,
But in the rush of everything to waste,
That you may have the power of standing still-

Eva - 34 is PL OK.

Nemo - thank you for the Frost (and the PL, but mostly the Frost).

I believe the DRs are all ready for editing. I'm not sure how the editing is being handled. I'm willing to contribute, but it wouldn't be for a few days.

I will be editing the DRs. They should be uploaded later tonight (my time.)

Cheers
