Carolin -

Section 95 still is listed as needing to be fixed (under PL Notes). I had incorporated the feedback and re-submitted the file on October 5th with Section 96 which has been marked PL-OK. I cannot find any other posts with more feedback for Section 95. Are you aware of anything else that needs to be done before Section 95 is marked PL OK?

Thanks!

[Carolin]

Thank you both

Lynda,

Finally got the internet connection here where I am for a meeting, so I thought I'd try to make some progress here on a few of your shorter pieces. Again, I'm overlooking a lot of small slips or mispronunciations and pointing out ones that make a significant difference in meaning and/or rhyme.

095 A Friendly Address to Mrs. Fry in Newgate

4:19 - :26 Repeat: “Commit a petty larceny, and thieve—”
5:13 Text: “Not prostrate and laid flat” I hear, “Not prostate and laid flat”
(Two different words that we don’t want to get confused here!)
5:30 Text: “To bring sobriety to life again,” I hear, “To bring sobrietary to life again,”
5:35 Text: “Anacreontic raisin,” I hear something like, “Aneronic” which is unrecognizable. (There are five syllables here A-na-cre-on-tic, accent on the fourth syllable).
6:22 Text: “thro' the immoral eye” I hear, “tho' the immoral eye”

112 Sailor's Apology for Bow-Legs

1:50 I hear, “I just makes free uh to cut” “uh” hesitation – easy to clip out.
2:15 Text: “leaves the inn a-starn” I hear, “leaves the inn a-stern!
(I mention this only because it should rhyme with “yarn” in a line above and Hood relies heavily on these sometimes forced rhymes).
4:26 Text: “she took in enough to founder!” I hear “funder”
(This is another rhyming issue – goes with “rounder” below.
5:00 Text: “I sees a man a-starn:—” I hear “astern” again. As before, this needs to rhyme with “yarn” below.
5:16 Text: “her own consarn” I hear, “her own concern” This is part of the same rhyming pattern: astarn, yarn, consarn, so it needs to be consistent.

113 The Volunteer and The Lover’s Progress

0:27 Text: “pickaxe” I hear “picksaxe” (should be an easy clip, the way it’s read”
0:47 Text: “To make sad widows of our wives,” I hear, “To make sad windows of our wives,”
0:59 Text: “Lawyer's Corps,” I hear, “ Lawyer's Corpse” (The “s” is silent – changes meaning from group of lawyers to dead bodies of lawyers)
2:39 Text: “I saw our melancholy corps,” I hear, “I saw our melancholy corpse” (same comment as above – maybe think of the Marine Corps)
5:14 Text: “that might have been” I hear, “that may have been” (not a critical one, but if you’re doing corrections, you might include this one)

115 The Drowning Ducklings -- PL OK

118 The Angler's Farewell

0:24 “chine” must rhyme with "line" below
1:20 an awkward pause that can be easily edited
1:23 Text: "Gudgeon" I hear "Gurdgeon"
2:00 Text: "I may wait till it's night, " I hear, "I may wait until it's night,"
2:37 Text: "But that 'tis like St. Mary's " I hear, "But that 'tis St. Mary's "
2:44 Text: "By a method " I hear, "But a method"

[Carolin]

Thank you both

5mm 10secs,

I've 2 others, the epistle to rae wilson, I just need to listen to it through, and the key just needs the repeats cut out.
Hopefully I should be able to get them to you soon.
