Here's

47 The Spanish Chronicle of the Cid - Part 2: Don Garcia Defies Don Sancho

8:27

Note: At 6:44 there is a footnote. I repeated the subject word after the footnote because it is a plural, and the definition is singular. I think it is clearer this way.

Thanks Bill!

The reading is great, I just have one comment on the intro:
at 0:34, please include the chapter title and part number in the intro, like this: "Junior Classics Vol. 4: Heroes and Heroines of Chivalry, by William Patten. The Spanish Chronicle of the Cid - Part 2: Don Garcia Defies Don Sancho"

About footnotes; I think the way you've included them so far is great. Do know that it's optional, so if you don't find a fitting way to include them, feel like they're not interesting, or break up the text too much, you can skip them if you wish.

I have 1 PL note for you;
at 9:46 the line "and told the knight that he had been at the water and done his command" confused me--it should be "and told the king ..."

Otherwise it's great :thumbs:

Hi! Thanks very much for your interest in the project. This section is reserved for you. However, before I can properly assign it to you, I'll need to know under what name you'd like to appear in the catalog.

Additionally, please complete a 1-minute test before embarking on a full recording. This is not an audition, but just to help you figure out all the settings that we need for the LibriVox catalogue--if something needs changing, that's a lot easier to do with a short test recording than with an actual recording! The instructions for it can be found here: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test
Once you've posted your test, feel free to post back here, so I can try to speed up the process a bit. :)

Let me know if you have any questions!

Cheers,
Foon
