Voce -
Very good job and quite a beautiful, expressive melody up until the rest. Also, excellent job avoiding parallel 5ths.
I will allow the repeated G in the melody -- but it is advised to have one or none at all.
I reviewed your exercises one MORE time. I now understand -- you did two exercises in two different modes - I failed to read the heading properly. Per our discussion, don't worry about changing mode nor the parallel octaves I mentioned as I miread initially your exercise. The error I did catch in your second exercise is an illegal interval between the voices -- check after msr 17, hint - you mislabeled it as a P5.
PS. In the future, I recommend you use the bass line I give. Appreciate your creativitiy and adventuresomeness though. Also, in real life this is important. Imagine you are providing harmony in a jazz trio and decide not to follow the bassline or chords given -- your fellow musicians will be very upset (and if they are green it will sound like a train wreck!)

Reason: Incorrectly said there were unisons when I meant repeated note Voce. Sorry for the confusion.
