Tcliff, you may be right. It certainly seems the final note in bar 13, the D, is played as more than an eigth note -- I assumed it was tied into the next measure for at least another eigth count. That means measure 14 is no longer just 4 quarter notes -- make the first E in bar 14 an eight note. Alternatively, you could leave the first E in bar 14 a quarter note, consider the last 3 notes a quarter note tripet (two counts), which leave 1 beat for the tied D from bar 13. Choices, choices........
Going back to bar 13, the reason I considered the triplet 2 counts was because they are shown as quarter notes. It you look at bar 9 or 10, for example, they each contain only two triplets ( of quarter notes) so each triplet must be 2 beats.
Thanks for the discussion.
