Thanks, though I'd prefer non-alcoholic beverages. :)

Yes, I know what you mean, and this is of course important. Even though=20
such intonation doesn't technically carry any value in Lojban (it's=20
instead conveyed via words where the specific stress lies), it would=20
probably still feel out of place during a play, if the lines got=20
emphasized too strangely.

I'm not happy with yet, and I need some ideas on how to better translate=20
it. I don't want to have to record the text multiple times.

Which part is the Chant? If it's the part after the Allegory, then I=20
could probably record that by wednesday.
