PL Notes for section 3:
The file name is incorrect, it should be completepoems_03_annebronte_128kb
at 0.00 the opening silence should be between 0.5 and 1 second
at 0.19 the text is The young leaves of the aspen trees but the word the is missing
at 0.28 the text is And his sweet lady by his side but the word And is missing
at 0.57 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.06 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.20 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.25 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.31 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.35 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.38 the text is He waved to her a last 'Adieu!' but the word to is missing
at 1.44 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.49 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 1.54 gap too long please close to 0.5 second
at 2.23 the text is Sweet spring will smile o'er hill and plain but I hear and tree and plain
at 2.40 the outro should be End of poem This recording is in the Public Domain
at 2.44 the ending silence should be 5 seconds

There are other places where the gaps between lines would benefit by being shorter, poetry has a natural rhythm which is lost if the gaps between lines are too long.
The volume is low at 86.8 Db, it would be better increased by 2 Db.

Please make these changes and upload with the correct filename.

I will check section 4 later.

Section 45 is PL OK! :thumbs:

Just one comment: Your poetry recordings would sound better if you left smaller gaps between lines and verses. Poetry has it's own natural rhythm which can be lost if there are too many pauses :wink:
