There is music in Erjie's reading

 

 

I   kNEW even THEN  that PART of  the  MAGic that surROUNded    
duh DA   duh   DA   duh  DA   duh duh   DA   duh  duh DA (uh)    

my  father  was his GREAT COMpassion and his ability to GENTly REAssure ...
duh duh uh  duh duh  DA   DA duh uh  duh duh duh duh duh  DG(uh) DA

duh - unstressed (weakly read) syllabl
DA - stressed (strongly read) sylalble
uh - unstressed (weakly read) syllable, half beat

The ryhthm of the first half of the sentence has two rhythmic patterns (one is to stress every other syllable, the other is to stress every other two syllables), and the second half is different in rhthmic pattern from the previous two, which is roughly with a double-consecutive stress every 'n' syllables.

just for fun !
