Perfect. The beginning of the final paragraph seems a little odd to me,
but I might be wrong.

Since I'm at it, there are a few things I spotted.
In one paragraph you wrote 'three' instead of 'tree'.
Further down:
"To them she gave the love of music and the making of songs, therefore
her they most revere who gave the birds their songs and the beasts their
voices."
I wonder whether it needs to read 'revere most' instead? Maybe with a
comma afterwards? At least I had to read it half a dozend times to make
sense of it ;). Might not be as big a problem for a native speaker, and
all in all it is a truly exquisite phrase :).
And in the same paragraph:
"[...] so that knew at once what could be done [...]".
Looks liky a 'they' is missing here.
I also have to agree with Nils. It's amazing with what original ideas
you come up in practically no time :).
