Here's my recording of section 29. I apologize in advance if my pronunciations are crap, old timey french is not my strong suit.

I'll do s. 28, and that looks like a full slate! Congrats!

I asked my librarian about the noise, and she said, "no one would come here
if they weren't allowed to talk out loud." So I read out loud.

Hi. I'd love it if you'd verify s. 28 for me. I can't edit after Saturday for a few weeks.

As the reader for section 14 has not returned since April and has not fixed the file, the section has been reopened today.

In section 25, I have a passage which is quoting at some length a poem in French. The English translation is in the footnotes, so I'm wondering should I read the English footnote in place of the French or read the French and then say "Footnote" and read the English translation? Just curious how to handle this.

Edit: I listened to Ben's approved audio file for Section 29 and noticed he read the French then read the footnote, so unless I hear otherwise I'll copy him.
