Hi Kiki

As the poem in section 8 (The wind that shakes the barley) is the lyric of a well known folk song would you like me to attempt a sung version or would prefer a spoken recitation? I have done sung sections for Librivox before.

Well, as long as you keep to the text and do proper intros-outros, I do not see why not. That would liven up the collection nicely!
Keep your mind here and now, where it belongs.

As this project now has open sections which need readers would it not be better moved to Readers Wanted? Just a suggestion :D

Good afternoon all,

As I grew up in and around the areas mentioned in these poems I would like to claim:

Section 35 - Dublin Bay by Lady Dufferin

Section 36 - The Kilruddery Hunt by Thomas Mozeen


Many thanks,

Sláinte (and take care)

Oops! My volume was too high. My mom helped me fix it. Here's the fixed one.

Wonderful reading on section 119. The volume is a little high at 92.5. Please amplify by -3.
Fixed it! I had totally forgotten about the Checker program for finding overall volume. Thanks!
