I would like to be your DPL.
Arlene

[MaryAnnSpiegel]

That would be wonderful Arlene! I've added you as DPL.

I'm traveling through New Year's, so I'm not sure if I am going to get anything more recorded on this in the next month, but it is an easy read and so shouldn't take long once I get back home.

MaryAnn,

For some reason, clicking on READY FOR PL is not working for me.
So my other reader suggested I just put it into an email. I'll try to find tech help.
Yes, my popup blocker is off. If it gets fixed, I put everything in the right place.

Chapter 1

4:44 You said “O father, FOR JUST a little while…”
Should be “O father, JUST FOR a little while…”

5:23 You said, “and he withered her in his wrath.”
It’s “and he withered her WITH his wrath.”

6:40 "Section (or Chapter) # of Mimosa, who was charmed. This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit librivox.org." [Optional: "Read by your name."] "Mimosa, who was charmed, by Amy Wilson Carmichael. Section Title" is missing at the start of Chapter 2.

Chapter 2

7:56 Said “Nevertheless FEAR it she must”.
It’s “ Nevertheless FEEL it she must”.

[MaryAnnSpiegel]

Thanks Arlene. These are good catches.

I'm going to wait to record any corrections until I'm back in the same room where I originally recorded this ... it will make for better patches.

As to Chapter 2 ... I only intend to give the disclaimer at the beginning of a section. Going from chapter to chapter within a given section, I intend to say "Chapter #, [chapter title]" and then start reading the chapter. Does that take care of your comment about the start of chapter 2?

[MaryAnnSpiegel]

Thank you Arlene!

[Areduto]

This is the cutest book! Cutest, not in a condescending way. How did you find this book to read???

[MaryAnnSpiegel]

I'm glad you are enjoying it. I am as well.

A friend of mine works at the library for Moody Bible Institute. She found it on the shelves and recommended it to me. She found it encouraging how this woman had only one little bit, and that as a child, but she held on to it and it and did her best to live by it. God's word does not return empty, but accomplishes that for which he sent it.

For chapter 8, I think 1.10 and 1.50 are fine as is, no change to meaning.
I've trimmed out "two"at 3.52

For chapter 9, I've changed to "however you do", corrected reading starts at 8.06.
And I'm fine leaving the second one in chapter 9 as is.

Corrected file uploaded and ready for spot PL.
