:clap: wow this was over-the-top great, Joanna. I couldn't stop smiling while humming along with your songs. And the ending "and a-drinking we will go" was hilarious. Excellently done and totally PL ok. Thanks !!

I don't think you needed to include the title and air, I think we will have the narrator announce those. But leave them in for now, Todd can later cut them as he needs them or not.

better late than never, thank you, Larry. And a great job you did with Fairlove, he has the right mixture or fierceness to fight for his love and softness when he actually talks with her.

However you missed quite a few lines, especially in the songs, I hope I caught them all :?

missed lines for Act 2:

> at about 1:01: (p. 31) "That fault's in the miser, and not in the mass / He knows not to use so precious a thing"

> at about 1:32: (p. 32)
- Another time, Sir, I am in a little haste at present.
- [aside] Harkye, John, I leave you with my rival, I need say no more. -- Dear Dorothea, ten thousand raptures are in the dear name."

missed lines for Act 3:

> at about 0:40: (p. 43 and 44)
- Unkind Dorothea !
- Would fortune, the truth to discover / Of him you suspect as a rover / Bid me to some princess a lover / No princess would Billy pursue.
- Whole ages my Dolly enjoying / Is a feast that could never be cloying / With thee while I'm kissing and toying / Kind Fortune can give me no more
- [both] With thee I'm so blessed beyond measure / I laugh at all offers of treasure / I laugh at all offers of pleasure / Thou art all my joy and my store

> at about 1:34: (p. 59) Thus the merchant, who with pleasure / Long adventured on the main / Hugging fast his darling treasure / Gaily smiles / On past toils / Well repaid for all his pain

> at about 1:55: (p. 63) All mankind are mad 'tis plain / Some for places / Some embraces / Some are mad to keep up gain / And others mad to spend it / Courtiers we may madmen rate / Poor believers / In deceivers / Some are mad to hurt the state / And others mad to mend it.

thanks

thanks, Larry, now PL ok. Only you uploaded to the wrong folder this time ;) but since these part files get deleted anyway, no need to reupload again. I'll change the link in the MW.
