thank you Matt for the fast turn-around. So the most important thing that struck me here was that Sheridan had beautiful eyes

this fact somehow got hit home in that section.

The edited parts 59 and 70, and section 94 are all PL ok already

One single PL note for Section 84:

> at 4:18: stumble and repeat "the jewelled pommel of his dagger" can be cut out

thanks !

And, two of my short sections:

https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/wordportraits_076_wotton_128kb.mp3 3:03

My Latin is shaky at best, so let me know if the phrase in 76 needs to be corrected. Also, missed a couple of "or" and "ands" - reversed them, but I think they're okay for meaning.

no your latin sounded quite ok, no worries

I found it funny that the second source for Thomas More was clearly copying from the first

textually all ok, but you also left out the "from" in front of the text source, which you agreed upon in the beginning

for Bunyan, that's
> at 0:28 / 1:10 / 1:53

and for More:
> at 0:29 / 1:42 / 2:30
> also here: over 7 seconds at the end, maybe cut 2 off

the rest, very well read

Thank you Rosemarie, this was a wonderful reading

You have an easy and lively manner of narrating and it was so agreeable to listen to. You're definitely giving Shakespeare a wonderful memorial here.

Also flawless reading, no textual errors found. Only at the end, you repeat the title, which is not necessary:

> at 9:01: "End of section 91" - you could cut out "William Shakespeare" here, if you wouldn't mind, then we all have them standardized

Thank you so much, and I hope to hear more from you

Hi Sonia,

Thank you very much!

I am also a big Shakespeare fan so that means so much to me!

I went ahead and edited out "William Shakespeare" at the end. The new duration is 9:10.

Please let me know if I need to make any further adjustments. I look forward to more Librivox recordings!

Thank you,
