The ruler attempts to extract himself with honor from his rash vow!

A few missing lines here, and one that I think is marked incorrectly. (That makes me worry how many more are like it. )

0:07 Oops, you missed your first two lines! Page 90: "The grounds of the divorce are so peculiar..." and "And yet that both of them should dream the same..."
0:31 Missing line (page 94): "What do you say, Vizir? What shall we do?"
1:23 I think that this line ("Say, hast thou not...") is incorrectly attributed to Soliman, but the context makes it clear that it should belong to Saladin. I'll be sure to have that reader include it. However, you can leave it in just in case. (I think maybe I'm mentioning it just to air it in public. )

Act 5 for the Sultan:

I love how quickly he just accepts everything that happens without question at this point. No missing lines here, but one optional word correction.

2:47 OPTIONAL There is a word substitution here, but not one that I think makes a great deal of difference. The word is actually vicegerent. You read it as "viceregent." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicegerent A common mistake, and the meaning is very similar, so this one depends on how correct you want to be.

Here is Act 6 for the Sultan:

Ah, a short one for you. One good monologue about windows and tiger-hunting, and off you go! PL ok!

Wow, this act is quite dramatic, for the Sultan especially. The first scene starts off quite funny! But it quickly becomes very serious.

4:31 This line actually continues on to the next page (page 184): "Gulnare, my child, sweet lily..."
4:54 Please add a space here for stage directions (after "Pardon!")

The MW says to see the PL notes for Chapter 6, but I can't find them.

[mightyfelix]

And here are 6 and 7.

To tell the truth (which I always try to do), I had already recorded these acts before receiving your post about adding the naming of the characters. So I went back and re-listened to them and found 6 places in Act 1 (6) and one in Act 2 (7) that I felt characters might need to be introduced. Like you said, if you disagree, it is a fairly easy delete, but this way you don't have to make all the notes and write a big hairy long post telling me what I did wrong. Now, after all that being said, I hope I did the rest of it correctly.

Good call on adding those names in, I entirely agree with you! There are only a couple still to add.

Act 6:

1:17 One more name here that I think would be helpful: "Sculptor" (p. 149)

Act 7:

4:12 And another name here: "The Spider" (p. 181)

And... the other thing I noticed... There's nothing I hate more than asking for a change on a section that I already marked PL ok. But you actually caught something in Act 6 (that is, Part 2 Act 1) that I had missed, which is the "Part the Second: Melpomene." This is excellent, and I'm so glad you caught it. But it made me realize that we both missed the "Part the First: Thalia." Could you add that in to Act 1 at about 0:22? Pretty please? Again, so sorry to ask for a change on this one.

Sorry, I was still typing them up.

Act 8:

There is more background noise in this act than you have had in your other recordings. Perhaps you skipped the noise reduction step?
3:20 Missing line: "Aloud." (p. 215) (There is another one at 5:28 that you can copy/paste.)
5:03 Text here reads "Drops the poisonous powder into her goblet." (p. 226) I hear "Drops the poisonous powder into his goblet." (I know this seems like an error, but they later exchange cups. The action is conveyed through their speeches, not through stage directions, so you may have missed it.)

Act 9 and 10 are PL ok!

Thanks for the quick turnaraound.

Act 4:

0:48 Whoops, another page break caught you out here. Your line continues on down to page 91: "Then shall we both..."

Acts 5 and 7 PL ok!

Sultan Act 4 - third time lucky.
