I think this is the longest poem in the book

PL OK!

Two differences from the text, but neither significant.

I'm willing to do word perfect for this project if you would like.

Hi Kevin
Thanks for this.
I think that for PL I will stay with the specification in the first post. This is the one I use for all my poetry projects and is copied from the Short Poetry Collection.
I never have been a perfectionist

Sections 5 & 6 are now in MW Ready for PL!

No one reaches perfection, but you come rather close.

Anthem for Doomed Youth is my favourite Owen poem, I hope I did it justice

Sections 8, 9, and 10 PL OK!

Well done!

I have to say, you did something rather marvelous with 'A few, a few...' in Section 8.

Alan, PL OK! though I will let you decide about the very last word. It sounds as though you use the Spanish 'morir.' At least, I hear an 'r.' I only mention it because it is such a famous line. Maybe I am hearing wrong.
