26 and 30 are PL OK. :thumbs:
I record between bird chirps myself, and have to make sure they don't build nests in the aluminum awning over my office window. Don't know which is worse, the birds or the hot rods, motorcycles, ambulances and airplanes zooming by.

Woodstock is PL OK. I had a sad thought here. I wonder if my grandson would have any idea what Chaucer's Tales refers to. I really don't know what he was taught in high school.

Thanks for the quick PL, Michele.

I was curious about the fact of the poem so looked it up. D'Anville left France with more than 60 ships and thousands of soldiers and between storms and disease they were mostly destroyed. D'Anville himself died on September 16 in Canada and his second in command commited suicide a few days later.

All good French Catholics, and I bet they were fervently praying to the same God, too! :shock:

Section 4 is PL OK. :thumbs:
Thank you Alan. Longfellow has certainly got his a-b-a-a-a-b motor revved up in this one. Great rhyming poem!
