That's much better. It is a shame that you had to go to 6 pages and with many pages with only 4 systems on a page, which, as I mentioned, is a little awkward in terms of empty space. Widening the distance between the treble and bass clefs often helps in such situations. I am attaching a suggested wa...

That's a lot better, although I myself would prefer 5 or fewer measures per system throughout as possible. I guess we can agree to disagree about the breath marks.
