Thank you, Shakira!

I have found out that it's easier for me to deal with gutenberg.org links if they link to the main page of the book, rather than a certain type of Download format option. So, if convenient for you, too, when using gutenberg.org please post the main link

I couldn't find the poem "To One Away" in the source you've mentioned. I found it in Love Songs http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/442 titled "Message"
If that is correct, please also change the title in the recording. Or if I'm missing something, please help me find the correct text source

(The other two poems are now in the Magic Window marked PL OK

)

But of course! I collected my MPP plans over the last couple of years, but I'll try and clean up those links for you as I post them here.

Just to be clear by the main page of the book, you mean URLS like
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/442
- correct?

And is that still true when there's a hyperlinked index in the book? (That's why I started doing it.)

That's because I cleverly pasted in the wrong URL over the correct one. It has that title in "Rivers to the Sea" -
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/596

Sorry about that.

Thank you, Shakira!!

Yes, I have decided to use the main link for a poem source, whenever possible, (which means as you said http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/442 )
so if it's convenient for you, too, great; if not, no worries, I'm just trying to save myself from a few more clicks
