thank you, Patrick. I was looking forward to this poem and you read it very well

Wow what a massacre on that day

Didn't think it would turn out that gruesome.

Textually all perfect, but I have a few notes concerning some lengthy pauses. If you could down your breaks a bit in the following places, this would make the flow of the story better. Any pause over 2 seconds feels very long for a listener, and one gets thrown out of the story, which would be a bit of a pity here

So this is what I would suggest to correct, nothing else. Best to start with the final PL note, then the time stamps will stay the same

> at 0:01: 3 seconds are too long to start. Please reduce to 0.5 to 1 second maximum
> at 0:31: between "1388" and "in the times...": lengthy pause
> at 1:31: between "mountains of Cheviot" and "within days three": lengthy pause in the same sentence
> at 3:34: I' the bounds of Tivydale – this is the abbreviation for "in", not the pronoun "I"
> at 9:35: between "a large cloth-yard and mair" and "two better captains": lengthy pause
> at 10:13: between "they were wet" and "there was never a freke": lengthy pause
> at 12:45: "i' faith, should never be" – also here it means "in faith"
> at 12:58: between "Cheviot within" and "God have mercy": lengthy pause
> at 13:51: between "battle of Otterbourn" and "at Otterbourn began": lengthy pause

and finally, since you have to reupload anyway, please change the filename number to only double digits "49", not "049". We have less than 100 sections here, so 2 numbers are enough

Thank you, great job. Only these few cuts to make and then we're ok.

thank you for the fast turn-around, Sarah, now that we are approaching the end of the project

This sections was beautifully narrated, lovely to listen to. I only have one tiny note to add:

> at 4:05: (p. 176) you forgot the short footnote here. In the second post I mentioned that I want all the footnotes included in this project. Could you please add the underlined sentence, this way: "the land of the Britons – Footnote: Welsh – End of Footnote – was under his sway"

the rest is perfect, thanks !

yay, thank you, Tomas.

Better late than never, as I say. But I'm glad they're in now, as the project is rapidly nearing to the end.

All sections PL ok. Especially King Henry was awesomely portrayed. But I also loved the despair of little Arthur. I will now assemble all the remaining plays. I have prepared them all, so only need to insert your parts.

Jim: stay ready for a final PL

Section 54 is fine, except for the omission of a phrase at 10:06. Otherwise, PL OK. Section 41 is PL OK. And but for a few noises (4:22, 4:40, 5:10), so is Section 8. Jim

thank you, Jim.

The few noises are ok, they are difficult to take out, and they are not too disturbing for me at least.

What exactly is missing at 10:06 in Section 54 ?

I checked just now and I really don't see anything that would be missing. Could you tell me the exact sentence you mean maybe ? That would save me from chasing around to find the error
