Sorry for the confusion over the PL
I don't always get them done in the exact order when they come in, so I apologize if that caused you stress.

First, let me say how pleased I am with the improvement in your reading! You obviously have been working very hard at this, and it shows. Hood is NOT an easy poet to read. In these he uses dialects, contractions and other contrived poetical devices.

I've let slide the minor mistakes and have marked 153 and 154 PL OK.
There are just two place in 166 that need correction as follows:

Section 166
2:09 Text: “Those very poplar shapes I hate;”
I hear, “Those very popular shapes I hate;”
I feel this is import here because the poet is talking about the shape of the poplar tree, not shapes that are popular.
2:22 Text: “When Peggy's dog her arms empris'n
I hear “empris’n” with a long “i” which changes both the meaning and the rhyme with the next line “his’n.” Think of “emprison.”

And for Section 144, just one missed edit (this happens to me, too)
3:10 repeat “I shan't not”
