Thank You :)
Hi Lee,

I listened to your lovely reading of the first sonnet, Death, and wondered why you were reading it out of order. When you started on "The Times to Come" by Charles A. Houfe, I realized what happened. Could you please delete that one, record "Silence" instead, and insert it before "Death"?

Thanks,
Well. That was a different sort of mistake! Lol! Here you go. The correct verses! :lol:

I reupload the Thomas Hood Section 53 sonnets but they may have got lost in the posts.

Hi Lee,

I did see your upload, but I’m away from home (and my computer) until Sunday. I’ve put it into the Magic Window, but won’t be able to listen until I get back.

Cheers,
Winnifred

A lovely reading of the correct verses. :lol:

Just a couple of picky notes about Silence:
  • At 0:18, I hear “Or in the wide desert where no life is found,” but the text reads “Or in wide desert where no life is found.” Can you please delete that errant “the” that snuck in there?
  • At 0:41, I hear “Of antique places, where Man hath been” but the text reads “Of antique palaces, where Man hath been.”
Once you do that, these will be perfect!

Thanks,
Winnifred

Hi Mary Jane,

A very nice reading. Just one note about "Evolution": at 0:57, I hear “No unthrift greed spurns thine unflagging zest,” but the text reads “No unthrift greed spurs thine unflagging zest.”

If you could please fix that, this section would be PL OK!

Thanks,
Winnifred
