YOUR code!

Start again from the beginning.
1- download and load paredit. Evaluate (add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook 'paredit-mode)
2- Open the original emacs lisp file again.
3- Edit carefully with the help of paredit. Paredit also manages
strings so you cannot insert or remove a stray double-quote.
