wrong Samuel Butler [FIXED]

Hi, all.

I met an error. In short, wrong Samuel Butler.

England had two famous Samuel Butler's. The one was a poet in the 17th Century. The two was a novelist in the 19th Century, who was a translator of Homer's epics. Whereas LibriVox says the translator is the former.

The translators:

The error:

(I suggest the Version 3 isn't appropriate. Samuel Batler translation is clear.)

At a glance, I know his English is of the late 19th Century.

Thanks,

This seems indeed to be the case. And we do have both Samuel Butlers in the catalog, so I'll just ascribe this translation to the other one.

Thank you!

It's my pleasure.
