Interesting that the poet uses the Spenserian stanza.

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.

Please can you advise on pronunciation: On p.199, right-hand column, six lines from the bottom. "50,000l" I am vaguely aware of the historic connections between pounds/libra/lira, but I'm not sure if this "l" should be pronounced as pounds or lira. Thanks.
I would go with "pounds". The historic word "libra" has its origin in "pound" anyway and I think that is why it's still written in that abbreviation.
Thanks for checking back though. I'm happy to see you are still on it Last section we're waiting for, and I'm looking forward to hearing your narration.

I'm really sorry to bother you again, but I'm struggling with one of the words in the Section.
On p.199, right-hand column, para 5, end of line 11 and again in line 17:
parismony: I do not know this word, and I suspect it is a misspelling of parsimony (which is used correctly later on in the text).
Where it is spelled parismony, would you like me to pronounce it as such, or should I rather pronounce it as parsimony?
Thanks

yes, if it's such an obvious typo, we can safely read the correct word, no worries. So "parsimony" would be correct here.
Thanks for asking ! And I'm happy you're still persevering.

awww what a wonderful story and with a total happy ending I'm a sucker for such stories. And you have narrated it so perfectly and agreeably, it was a real treat. Thank you so much, Ken, and I'm really looking forward to your next story (I remember you've claimed another one I can listen to. )kmasters wrote: ↑June 5th, 2021, 2:27 amSection 3: Beginning the world
