As this is such a long poem I am prepared to accept STANDARD PL if anyone has the time and patience to listen to it :help:

Hi Stacey

otherwise OK! :thumbs:

Hi earl
PL notes for section 5:
at 0.42 fie on should be pronounced FI-on rather than FEE-on
at 0.53 text is Retreat or fight but I hear Retreat or flight
at 4.00 add This recording is in the Public Domain

Optional: You have pronounced Lyon as LEE-on but it would rhyme better with other lines if it was pronounced LIE-on.
This may be too big a change to make at this stage.
