In need of your proof reading...

[G82.]

Hanc provocationem magnam suscepi, carmen de materiis animorum nostrorum scribere. Hic difficultas gemina est: facere cunctum versu venustu una est et altera - situm vere aestimare.

I'd be very grateful to get some feedback on this.

Hanc provocationem magnam suscepi, carmen de materiis animorum nostrorum scribere. Hic difficultas gemina est: facere cunctum versu venustu una est et altera - situm vere aestimare.

I'd be very grateful to get some feedback on this.

First, here's how I read it in English:
"I took up this great challenge, to write a song about the matter of our souls. The difficulty here is two-fold: one, to make everything with an attractive verse, and also to correctly assess the situation."

The only grammatical innacuracy I see is "venustu," which should be "venusto," the abl. m. sg. adjective.

[G82.]

Great! This is almost exactly what I was trying to say. I'm thinking I should substitute "facere" with something else as it's supposed to read "to put it all in (a) pretty verse", rather than "to make it all..." "Contrahere" seems a tempting option, any thoughts?

Thanks a lot for spotting the typo ("venustu - o")!

[thesaurus]

May I suggest "conferre," which means bringing and putting things together?

Also, you could probably adjust the 'una et altera' structure. Possibly "una, conferre cunctum versu venusto et altera, situm vere aestimare."

[G82.]

Of course, "conferre" is exactly the word I need! (I should have thought of it.) Thank you Thesaurus. And thank you also for your suggestion regarding the "una et altera" structure, it does sound better this way.
