The Literary Lady By Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
http://www.bartleby.com/380/poem/458.html
Everything is perfectly submitted, information and all! You are becoming a natural! :D
You even made our Author Database richer with a new addition; Jacques Delille.
I'm sorry the instructions in the first post were confusing at first, but I'm glad you figured it out anyway :thumbs:
It was definitely a pleasure to listen to, they are very amusing poems and very appropriately read! I'm looking forward to your third choice for the month!
Thank you!! I like to read items that have not been read and put on LV before so I am pleased you liked what I had chosen to record. I will get a third posted by the end of the month & hope you will like it as much. :D

Hi!

I would love to contribute, but I'm uncertain about all the public domain copyright stuff.
I'd like to read this poem by J.R.R. Tolkien, published in a magazine in 1913. Would that be allowed?

Readers needed:

Rapunzelina,

Here are three more drops of sound for the LibriVox ocean. "Horses" was much appreciated by my spouse, who is an ESL teacher and equine enthusiast. It also has the virtue of being the shortest poem I've recorded. :D

Horses by Witter Bynner (1881-1968)

They All Want to Play Hamlet by Carl Sandburg (1878–1967)

Hello! Thank you for your patience! I looked for a scanned version of the 1913 magazine but couldn't find anything. So we can't be sure that the online poem is the same as what it was when first published. Any changes may now be copyrighted. In these cases it's safer for Librivox to err on the side of caution, and only use texts that come from a scanned 1922-and-earlier publications or gutenberg.org which has a legal team that checks the copyright status of the texts, and we can trust it. Thanks :)

I totally understand! I'll go look for a different poem then :)
Thanks for checking and figuring this out for me!

Hi Kelly! Thank you for your contribution! :9: A lovely reading. I have added it to the Magic Window and marked it PL OK! Just a reminder that we don't use upper-case letters in filenames, so I've fixed that. :thumbs:

Here are a couple of poems.
I don't think either of these to authors are in the LV catalog, so I'm including web links. Neither are in Wikipedia, so this is he best I coul do.

Paul to Timothy by Robert W. Norwood (1872-1934)

==================================================

Under the Stars by J. R. Wilkinson (1837-1908)

Hi Larry! Thank you for these contributions!

In "Paul to Timothy" can you check around 06:00? It sounds cut off to me.
Text is "The feet of him who bears that letter speed, As sped Pheidippides"

"Under the Stars" is PL OK!

You are quite right -- a botched edit

So, here is the corrected file:

I will try and find a poem either for this collection which is nearly complete or the next collection. I'm sort of back in business now after some health problems.
