Very first line is "I'd something give, could I but say"

It is read as "I'd give something"

Is this a problem, or am I OK to go with it?

Narrator in Scene 8:

Missed the line, "Exeunt."
Go with it, I'd say. Re missing word, can you pinch it from another narrator file, please? They're all linked.

Removing prwells32 as editor from sections 54 - 55 (no response). Put Tricia down instead.

Some parts for you:

Orchesta at 0:35, 553 kb

The Awkward at 0:21, 337kb

The Chorus at 1:18, 1.19MB
http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ge/faust_17_sc20_chorus.mp3

The other reader for the Little Couple has recorded two voices already. Would you like me to record a third or will her reading suffice for both parts? Also, I've been playing around with the Peasants song. nnattie's harmonies got me all excited, so I recorded a third harmonized part, but listening back to it I'm a bit afraid it's all just too messy and too much. What do you think about it? Would you prefer I sing one of the already recorded 2 parts or should I add a third? Or should I send you both and let you decide?

Thanks!

Thanks, Tricia! And I've put you down as editor for two other sections, see above. Hope that's okay, otherwise just LMK. :)

Scene 8 - 7:59

http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ge/faust_sc08_goethe.mp3

Scene 23 (3:23 in my edited version) - missing Mephistopheles' lines:
Wilt thou grasp the thunder? Well that it has not been
given to you, miserable mortals! To crush to pieces the innocent
respondent—that is the tyrant-fashion of relieving one's
self in embarrassments.

Scene 24 - 0:38

Thanks so much for the quick action! It's much appreciated.

Couple: yes, please record another
Peasants: Sure, include both. Maybe leave a note in the recording for the editor to choose a version.

Thank you, Tricia! I'll listen shortly, and I'll try and contact the reader.

Uploaded the missing lines:

It's been so long, that not only my equipments, but also my accent, and even my voice have changed! Just hope, this works, if you want me to re-record the whole section, I can do that too.

After the attack on the website, I had some difficulties getting my user id working and the gap in those days, and lost contact to this great website. Since, I am here again, I hope to be regular here again..

And, folks! How's life moving on?
