+%\begin{abstract}
+%The present package provides support for drama both in verse and
+%in prose. The following facilities are given: two environments for
+%typesetting dialogues in prose or in verse; new document divisions
+%corresponding to acts and scenes; macros that control the
+%appearance of characters and stage directions; and automatical
+%generation of a \emph{dramatis person\ae} list.
+%\end{abstract}
+%
+%\tableofcontents
+%
+%\section{Introduction}
+%
+%The edition of a drama requires special treatment for many
+%typographical elements. The purpose of the present package is that
+%of providing full support for these specialities. So, besides the
+%standard document divisions, new ones are introduced reflecting
+%the peculiar nature of the document itself; environments are
+%provided for introducing dialogues, and a set of macros is placed
+%at the user's disposal to handle characters, automatically
+%generate a \emph{dramatis person\ae} list, and control the
+%appearance of stage directions. All these features I have tried to
+%make fully customizable, with the idea that typographical
+%conventions are hints rather than laws, and the fully conscious
+%user should be enabled to override them.
+%
+%The decision to write a package rather than a class is due to
+%similar considerations about user's freedom. The package strictly
+%provides what is meant in his name and doesn't involve itself in
+%the layout design of the document. This task is left to the class
+%chosen by the user. In particular, the package does not provide
+%explicit support for text in verse, though it provides support for
+%those features that are peculiar to a \emph{drama} in verse.
+%However, \pkgname{dramatist} is integrated with the main packages
+%dealing with verse (such as \pkgname{verse} or
+%\pkgname{poemscol}), so that the user can, for instance, use line
+%numbering defined by one of the aforesaid packages in a meaningful
+%way inside a \envname{drama*} environment.
+%
+%\section{User interface}
+%
+%\subsection{Package Options}
+%\DescribeOpt{lnpa}\DescribeOpt{lnps} The package provides two
+%options, both concerning line numbering in verse drama. By default
+%none of the options is used and the counter holding the line
+%number is not reset throughout the document. If you like it better
+%you can choose line numbering per act or per scene issuing one of
+%the options, namely: |lnpa| or |lnps|. Issuing the options when
+%typesetting a play in prose, has no effect on the document, but a
+%package warning is typed in the |log| file every time a |drama|
+%environment is called.
+%
+%\subsection{The \envname{drama} environment}
+%
+%The |drama| environment is the heart of the package. Two versions,
+%of this environment, are provided: the normal version, used for
+%typesetting dramas in prose, and the starred version
+%(\envname{drama*}) for typesetting dramas in verse.
+%\DescribeEnv{drama} The unstarred form arranges the items given by
+%the macros for defining characters (see Section~\ref{sec:cdc}) in
+%a sort of description-like environment -- but the parameters can
+%be managed and adjusted to get every kind of list the user
+%desires. These are the hooks provided for customizing the look of
+%the environment\footnote{For this parametrization of the
+%\envname{drama} environment I'm in debt with Christian Ebert.}:
+%\begin{description}
+% \item[\cs{speakswidth}] is the width of the label in which the
+% name of the character is printed;
+% \item[\cs{speaksindent}] is the indentation of that label;
+% \item[\cs{Dlabelsep}] is the space between the label and the
+% text;
+% \item[\cs{Dparsep}] is the space between paragraphs inside the
+% dialogue;
+% \item[\cs{speechskip}] is the space between two subsequent
+% speeches.
+%\end{description}
+%You can see default settings for these macros in
+%Table~\ref{tab:drama}. A conditional expression checks the
+%eventual presence of a line numbering option, in which case a
+%warning is sent to the user in the |log| file about the
+%meaninglessness of the option.
+%
+%\begin{table}

+%\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}

+%\end{center}
+%\end{table}
+%\MakeShortVerb{\|}
+%
+%\DescribeEnv{drama*} The starred form switches to |\@drversetrue|
+%(this is used by the commands that define characters -- see
+%Section~\ref{sec:cdc}), calls the \envname{verse} environment --
+%or the \envname{poem} environment if \pkgname{poemscol} package
+%has been loaded: this is automatically recognized by the package
+%and needs no additional option --, and, if |\poemlines| is
+%defined\footnote{This is provided by the \clsname{memoir}
+%\cite{mem} class and the \pkgname{verse} \cite{ver} package for
+%line numbering purpose.}, the value of the |poemline| counter is
+%restored at the beginning and saved at the end of the environment
+%(this is needed because, by default, the aforesaid counter is
+%reset to 1 every time the \envname{verse} environment is called).
+%In case \pkgname{poemscol} has been loaded, the same operations
+%are performed for counters \textsf{linenumber} and
+%\textsf{printlineindex}.
+%
+%\subsection{Sectioning Commands}
+%
+%The package provides two series of commands in order to get a
+%proper sectioning of the text: a \emph{lowercase} series and an
+%\emph{uppercase} series. The difference between them is that the
+%\emph{lowercase} form takes no mandatory argument and can be used
+%absolutely, while the \emph{uppercase} form take one mandatory
+%argument and should be used only when a title is specified as a
+%part of the act/scene heading. I chose to introduce this peculiar
+%form of sectioning commands without argument (and as the default
+%one) because I think that in most cases the user only wants to get
+%something like \emph{Act I} and should not bore himself issuing a
+%pair of curly braces.
+%
+%So \DescribeMacro{\act}|\act| and \DescribeMacro{\scene}|\scene|
+%print by default only the act or scene name (e.g.: Act) and its
+%ordinal number. They (and |\DramPer| also) may take an optional
+%argument: this feature is useful for inserting footnotes or
+%endnotes in the act/scene headings, but causes an undesirable
+%consequence: the user should issue a blank line after each of
+%these commands when used without argument (two blank lines for
+%|\DramPer| followed by a void |\scene|).
+%
+%\DescribeMacro{\Act}|\Act| and \DescribeMacro{\Scene}|\Scene| take
+%as mandatory argument the title of the act or of the scene. An
+%optional argument has the same meaning as for standard sectioning
+%commands (|\chapter|, |\section|, etc.). The title is printed by means
+%of |\printacttitle| or |\printscenetitle|.
+%
+%Each command is fully customizable, in the style of Peter Wilson's
+%|memoir| class (see for the documentation \cite{mem}), via
+%commands like \DescribeMacro{\printactname}|\printactname| or
+%\DescribeMacro{\printactnum}|\printactnum|. These commands can be
+%redefined by the user according with his own desire. Table
+%\ref{tab:com} shows the commands and their default settings.

+%
+%\DescribeMacro{\actmark}|\actmark| and \DescribeMacro{\scenemark}
+%|\scenemark|, defined by default to do nothing, can be useful for
+%printing marks in the headers, and have the same meaning of
+%|\chaptermark| and |\sectionmark| in the standard classes.
+%
+%A starred version also is provided for |\Act|, |\act|, |\Scene|
+%and |\scene|. As in standard classes the starred form does not
+%make an entry for the table of contents, and does not print the
+%section mark in the headers.
+%
+%\subsection{Defining characters\label{sec:cdc}}
+%
+%The introduction of a new character is made by the command
+%\DescribeMacro{\Character} |\Character|. It takes three arguments:
+%the first, optional\footnote{The argument, mandatory until version
+%1.1, has been made optional by suggestion of Christian Ebert in
+%version 1.2. This avoids issuing a \cs{Character} command with a
+%dummy first argument \emph{after} \cs{DramPer} when you need a
+%character not appearing in the \emph{Dramatis Person\ae} list.},
+%is the entry for the list of \emph{Dramatis Person\ae}, the second
+%is the name appearing in the text and the third is the base for
+%the construction of the commands typesetting the occurrence of
+%that name in the stage direction and as a speaker. Shortly, if
+%\meta{name} is given as third argument, the macro will return the
+%following commands: \verb|\|\meta{name} is used in stage
+%direction, \verb|\|\meta{name}|speaks| is used as speaker.
+%
+%The first argument, when present, is passed to the macro
+%\DescribeMacro{\DramPer}|\DramPer|, printing the list of
+%\emph{Dramatis Person\ae}. The parameters of this macro are also
+%customizable; the list of default settings can be seen in
+%Table~\ref{tab:char}. Other parameters related to the
+%customization of \verb|\|\meta{name} and
+%\verb|\|\meta{name}|speaks| commands are added.
+%
+%You can also use a \DescribeMacro{\speaker}
+%|\speaker{|\meta{name}|}| command in the place you want the
+%character with name \meta{name} to appear (in this case no command
+%is defined to print the name of the character inside a stage
+%direction).
+%
+%\subsubsection{Grouped characters}
+%
+%Characters, in the \emph{Dramatis Person\ae} list, may need to be
+%grouped under a common denomination\footnote{Thanks to Christian
+%Ebert for having submitted the problem to my attention.}. For this
+%occurrence the package provides an environment,
+%\DescribeMacro{CharacterGroup} \envname{CharacterGroup}, taking,
+%as mandatory argument the denomination common to each character
+%belonging to the current group. Inside this environment the
+%characters have to be defined by \DescribeMacro{\GCharacter}
+%|\GCharacter| whose syntax is the same of |\Character|, except
+%that the first argument is here, obviously, mandatory. The result
+%will be that the characters will be grouped by a big parentheses
+%on whose right will be printed, centered, the common denomination.
+%The user can define the amount of space reserved to the characters
+%names, the parentheses and the common denomination by means of
+%\DescribeMacro{\CharWidth} |\CharWidth|,
+%\DescribeMacro{\ParenWidth} |\ParenWidth| and
+%\DescribeMacro{\GroupWidth} |\GroupWidth|.
+%
+%\bigskip
+%
+%The commands appearing in this section (especially |\DramPer| and
+%|\Character|, i.e. the most crucial part of the whole work) have
+%been inspired by Matt Swift's package |drama|.

+%
+%\subsection{Stage direction}
+%
+%Two commands are provided for printing stage directions: the
+%first, \DescribeMacro{\StageDir}|\StageDir| is used for the very
+%setting of the stage and calls a |quote| environment. The second,
+%\DescribeMacro{\direct} is used for specifications in the middle
+%of the speaker's text. In connection with the |verse| environment
+%a starred version exists also to be used at the end of a
+%stanza\DescribeMacro{\direct*}\footnote{This works only with the
+%|verse| environment provided by the |verse| package and by the
+%|memoir| class. You can use the normal, not starred version of the
+%command with the standard |verse| environment}. A
+%\DescribeEnv{stagedir} |stagedir| environment is finally provided
+%for extremely long stage directions: it differs in nothing from
+%his command version.
+%
+%|\StageDir| and the |stagedir| environment can be customized by
+%means of \DescribeMacro{\StageDirConf} |\StageDirConf|. The
+%command takes two arguments related to the code to be executed at
+%the beginning and at the end of |\StageDir| or |stagedir|.
+%
+%\subsection{Local configuration file}
+%
+%As my chief aim has been the one of giving the user the support
+%for a complete customization of the provided commands, I have
+%taken under consideration the case of a stable local configuration
+%set up by the user. So I introduced the possibility of reading a
+%set of user definitions from a local configuration file called
+%\marginpar{\raggedleft\small |dramatist.cfg|}|dramatist.cfg|. You
+%must create this file, if you need it, and place it in a suitable
+%directory (either the working directory or the package directory);
+%if you don't need it, no problem: the package will merely print in
+%your log file a message claiming the absence of such a file, but
+%nor interruptions neither error will take place.
+%
+%\subsection{Acknowledgements}
+%
+%I must acknowledge a debt of inspiration toward both Peter
+%Wilson's all purpose class package |memoir| and Matt Swift's
+%|drama|. While the former inspired me with a peculiar care toward
+%complete customization, the latter was the formal model and the
+%source of solution for many among the problems which arose in the
+%proceeding of the code writing. I highly recommend the use of the
+%class |memoir| and the study of Matt Swift's ambitious bundle
+%|Frankenstein| (but I hope you want use |dramatist| package instead!).
+%
+%I also wish to thank Christian Ebert, whose suggestions have been
+%so useful to me in solving -- and often in merely recognizing --
+%many problems, and whose help and stimulating conversation is at
+%the basis of the present (v1.2) revision of the package.
+%
+%\subsection{Known bugs}
+%
+%The user should issue an empty line after |\act| or |\scene| and
+%\emph{two} empty lines after |\DramPer| (especially when it's
+%followed by |\scene| used without argument).
+%
+%Using option |lnpa| or |lnps| together whith package
+%\pkgname{hyperref} causes a long series of warning to be typed in
+%the |log| file. This is due, I think, because \pkgname{hyperref}
+%finds duplicates of the same entry every time the \envname{drama*}
+%environment resets the |poemline| counter. However, there are no
+%effects on the document, because the counter itself is by no way
+%used by \pkgname{hyperref}.
+%
+%If you encounter new bugs, or have suggestions about the solution
+%of the known ones, please send me a mail to this address:

+%\subsection{Defining characters}
+%
+%\begin{macro}{\Character}
+%The macro |\Character| performs three different tasks. First,
+%it creates, being \meta{name} the third argument, the command
+%|\|\meta{name}, for use in stage directions; in order to achieve
+%this task it uses |\@namedef|, and a new defined command,
+%|\intsp@ce|, which takes care of inserting spaces when needed and
+%which is inspired by |\text@command| (both for this and for
+%|\@namedef| see the latex source).
+%
+%In second place it creates a |\|\meta{name}|speaks| command, used
+%for printing the speaker's name. It uses, for this purpose a
+%|\n@me@ppend@nddef| macro which is similar to |\@namedef|. A
+%conditional |\if@drverse| produces different formatting for the verse
+%and the prose environment.
+%
+%Finally, in third place, if the first optional argument is given
+%and |\@xcharacter| is called, it creates an internal command,
+%still using |\n@me@ppend@nddef|, in the form
+%|\persona|\meta{count}, where \meta{count} is a counter expressed
+%in roman lowercase numerals increasing by one every time
+%|\Character| is called. This family of commands is used by
+%|\DramPer| when it prints the list of the characters.
+%\changes{v1.2}{2004/05/10}{The first argument of \cs{Character} has
+%been made optional so that documents printed with previous
+%versions are not compatible with the present and the future

+%software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License
+%instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
+%
+%When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+%price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
+%you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and
+%charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code
+%or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or
+%use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can
+%do these things.
+%
+%To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+%anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the
+%rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities
+%for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify
+%it.
+%
+%For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+%gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights
+%that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can
+%get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
+%know their rights.
+%
+%We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,
+%and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
+%copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
+%
+%Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make
+%certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for
+%this free software. If the software is modified by someone else
+%and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have
+%is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others
+%will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
+%
+%Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+%patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+%program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making
+%the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear
+%that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not
+%licensed at all.
+%
+%The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+%modification follow.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large \sc Terms and Conditions For Copying, Distribution and
+% Modification}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%
+%\begin{enumerate}
+%
+%\addtocounter{enumi}{-1}
+%
+%\item
+%This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
+%notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+%under the terms of this General Public License. The ``Program'',
+%below, refers to any such program or work, and a ``work based on
+%the Program'' means either the Program or any derivative work
+%under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program
+%or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
+%translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
+%included without limitation in the term ``modification''.) Each
+%licensee is addressed as ``you''.
+%
+%Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are
+%not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act
+%of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the
+%Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on
+%the Program (independent of having been made by running the
+%Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+%
+%\item You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source
+% code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously
+% and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice
+% and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to
+% this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other
+% recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
+%
+%You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
+%and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange
+%for a fee.
+%
+%\item
+%
+%You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+%of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+%distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+%above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+%
+%\begin{enumerate}
+%
+%\item
+%
+%You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+%stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+%
+%\item
+%
+%You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+%whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+%part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+%parties under the terms of this License.
+%
+%\item
+%If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when
+%run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive
+%use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
+%including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there
+%is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and
+%that users may redistribute the program under these conditions,
+%and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
+%(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not
+%normally print such an announcement, your work based on the
+%Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+%
+%\end{enumerate}
+%
+%
+%These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
+%identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
+%Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate
+%works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not
+%apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate
+%works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a
+%whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of
+%the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions
+%for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each
+%and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+%
+%Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or
+%contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
+%intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
+%derivative or collective works based on the Program.
+%
+%In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
+%Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on
+%a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the
+%other work under the scope of this License.
+%
+%\item
+%You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+%under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms
+%of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
+%following:
+%
+%\begin{enumerate}
+%
+%\item
+%
+%Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+%source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+%1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
+%interchange; or,
+%
+%\item
+%
+%Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years,
+%to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of
+%physically performing source distribution, a complete
+%machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+%distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+%customarily used for software interchange; or,
+%
+%\item
+%
+%Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
+%distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
+%allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+%received the program in object code or executable form with such
+%an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+%
+%\end{enumerate}
+%
+%
+%The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work
+%for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete
+%source code means all the source code for all modules it contains,
+%plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts
+%used to control compilation and installation of the executable.
+%However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need
+%not include anything that is normally distributed (in either
+%source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,
+%kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable
+%runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
+%
+%If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+%access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+%access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+%distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+%compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+%
+%\item
+%You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+%except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
+%otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+%void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
+%License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
+%from you under this License will not have their licenses
+%terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
+%
+%\item
+%You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+%signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify
+%or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions
+%are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.
+%Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work
+%based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this
+%License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
+%distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
+%
+%\item
+%Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+%Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+%original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program
+%subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any
+%further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights
+%granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance
+%by third parties to this License.
+%
+%\item
+%If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+%infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent
+%issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
+%agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this
+%License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
+%License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
+%your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
+%obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
+%Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
+%royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who
+%receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only
+%way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain
+%entirely from distribution of the Program.
+%
+%If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
+%under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is
+%intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply
+%in other circumstances.
+%
+%It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe
+%any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity
+%of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
+%protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,
+%which is implemented by public license practices. Many people
+%have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
+%distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
+%application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide
+%if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
+%system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
+%
+%This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed
+%to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+%
+%\item
+%If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+%certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,
+%the original copyright holder who places the Program under this
+%License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
+%excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only
+%in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this
+%License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of
+%this License.
+%
+%\item
+%The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
+%versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such
+%new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but
+%may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
+%
+%Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
+%Program specifies a version number of this License which applies
+%to it and ``any later version'', you have the option of following
+%the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later
+%version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program
+%does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose
+%any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
+%
+%\item
+%If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+%programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
+%author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted
+%by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
+%Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision
+%will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of
+%all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
+%and reuse of software generally.

+%\subsection*{Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs}
+%
+%If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the
+%greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this
+%is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and
+%change under these terms.
+%
+% To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
+% attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey
+% the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
+% ``copyright'' line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+%
+%\begin{quote}
+%one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does. \\
+%Copyright (C) yyyy name of author \\
+%
+%This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
+%modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as
+%published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the
+%License, or (at your option) any later version.
+%
+%This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+%but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+%MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
+%General Public License for more details.
+%
+%You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+%along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
+%Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA
+%02111-1307, USA.
+%\end{quote}
+%
+%Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
+%mail.
+%
+%If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like
+%this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+%
+%\begin{quote}
+%Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) yyyy name of author \\
+%Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. \\
+%This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+%under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+%\end{quote}
+%
+%
+%The hypothetical commands {\tt show w} and {\tt show c} should
+%show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of
+%course, the commands you use may be called something other than
+%{\tt show w} and {\tt show c}; they could even be mouse-clicks or
+%menu items---whatever suits your program.
+%
+%You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
+%your school, if any, to sign a ``copyright disclaimer'' for the
+%program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
+%
+%\begin{quote}
+%Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program \\
+%`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. \\
+%
+%signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989 \\
+%Ty Coon, President of Vice
+%\end{quote}
+%
+%
+%This General Public License does not permit incorporating your
+%program into proprietary programs. If your program is a
+%subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit
+%linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is
+%what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License
+%instead of this License.

+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\bf\large Preamble}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+%functional and useful document ``free'' in the sense of freedom: to
+%assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+%with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
+%Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
+%to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
+%for modifications made by others.
+%
+%This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
+%works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
+%complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+%license designed for free software.
+%
+%We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
+%software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
+%program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
+%software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
+%it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
+%whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
+%principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
+%contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
+%distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a
+%world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
+%work under the conditions stated herein. The \textbf{``Document''}, below,
+%refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a
+%licensee, and is addressed as \textbf{``you''}. You accept the license if you
+%copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
+%under copyright law.
+%
+%A \textbf{``Modified Version''} of the Document means any work containing the
+%Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+%modifications and/or translated into another language.
+%
+%A \textbf{``Secondary Section''} is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
+%the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+%publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
+%(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
+%within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a
+%textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
+%mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
+%connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
+%commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
+%them.
+%
+%The \textbf{``Invariant Sections''} are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
+%are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
+%that says that the Document is released under this License. If a
+%section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
+%allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero
+%Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant
+%Sections then there are none.
+%
+%The \textbf{``Cover Texts''} are certain short passages of text that are listed,
+%as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
+%the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may
+%be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
+%
+%A \textbf{``Transparent''} copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+%represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+%general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+%straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
+%pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
+%drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
+%for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
+%to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
+%format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
+%or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
+%An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
+%of text. A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called \textbf{``Opaque''}.
+%
+%Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+%ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
+%or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
+%HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of
+%transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats
+%include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
+%proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
+%processing tools are not generally available, and the
+%machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
+%processors for output purposes only.
+%
+%The \textbf{``Title Page''} means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+%plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
+%this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
+%formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
+%the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
+%preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+%
+%A section \textbf{``Entitled XYZ''} means a named subunit of the Document whose
+%title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
+%text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a
+%specific section name mentioned below, such as \textbf{``Acknowledgements''},
+%\textbf{``Dedications''}, \textbf{``Endorsements''}, or \textbf{``History''}.)
+%To \textbf{``Preserve the Title''}
+%of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
+%section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition.
+%
+%The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
+%states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty
+%Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
+%License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+%implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
+%no effect on the meaning of this License.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 2. VERBATIM COPYING}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+%commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+%copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
+%to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
+%conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
+%technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+%copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
+%compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
+%number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
+%
+%You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+%you may publicly display copies.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
+%printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
+%Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
+%copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
+%Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
+%the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
+%you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
+%the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
+%visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
+%Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
+%the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
+%as verbatim copying in other respects.
+%
+%If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+%legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+%reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+%pages.
+%
+%If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
+%more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
+%copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
+%a computer-network location from which the general network-using
+%public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
+%a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
+%If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
+%when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
+%that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+%location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
+%Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
+%edition to the public.
+%
+%It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+%Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
+%them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 4. MODIFICATIONS}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
+%the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
+%the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
+%Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
+%and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
+%of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
+%
+%\begin{itemize}
+%\item[A.]
+% Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
+% from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
+% (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
+% of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
+% if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+%
+%\item[B.]
+% List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
+% responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
+% Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+% Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
+% unless they release you from this requirement.
+%
+%\item[C.]
+% State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+% Modified Version, as the publisher.
+%
+%\item[D.]
+% Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+%
+%\item[E.]
+% Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+% adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+%
+%\item[F.]
+% Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+% giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
+% terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+%
+%\item[G.]
+% Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
+% and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
+%
+%\item[H.]
+% Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+%
+%\item[I.]
+% Preserve the section Entitled ``History'', Preserve its Title, and add
+% to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
+% publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
+% there is no section Entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one
+% stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
+% given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
+% Version as stated in the previous sentence.
+%
+%\item[J.]
+% Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
+% public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
+% the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
+% it was based on. These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
+% You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
+% least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
+% publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+%
+%\item[K.]
+% For any section Entitled ``Acknowledgements'' or ``Dedications'',
+% Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all
+% the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
+% and/or dedications given therein.
+%
+%\item[L.]
+% Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+% unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
+% or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
+%
+%\item[M.]
+% Delete any section Entitled ``Endorsements''. Such a section
+% may not be included in the Modified Version.
+%
+%\item[N.]
+% Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled ``Endorsements''
+% or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+%
+%\item[O.]
+% Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.

+%
+%If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+%appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
+%copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+%of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
+%list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
+%These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
+%
+%You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
+%nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+%parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
+%been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
+%standard.
+%
+%You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
+%passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
+%of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
+%Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
+%through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
+%includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
+%by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
+%you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
+%permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
+%
+%The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
+%give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
+%imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+%

+%{\Large\bf 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
+%License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
+%versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
+%Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
+%list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
+%license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
+%
+%The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+%multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+%copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
+%different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
+%adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
+%author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
+%Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
+%Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+%
+%In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History''
+%in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
+%``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
+%and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''. You must delete all sections
+%Entitled ``Endorsements''.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
+%released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
+%License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
+%the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
+%verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
+%
+%You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
+%it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+%License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+%other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
+%and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
+%distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright
+%resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
+%of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
+%When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
+%apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
+%derivative works of the Document.
+%
+%If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+%copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
+%the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
+%covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+%electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
+%Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
+%aggregate.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 8. TRANSLATION}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+%distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
+%Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+%permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+%translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+%original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+%translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+%Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
+%the original English version of this License and the original versions
+%of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between
+%the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
+%or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
+%
+%If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
+%``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
+%its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
+%title.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 9. TERMINATION}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
+%as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
+%copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
+%automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
+%parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
+%License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+%parties remain in full compliance.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
+%of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
+%versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+%differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
+%http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
+%
+%Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
+%If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
+%License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of
+%following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
+%of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
+%Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
+%number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
+%as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
+%
+%\begin{center}
+%{\Large\bf ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents}
+%\end{center}
+%
+%To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+%the License in the document and put the following copyright and
+%license notices just after the title page:
+%
+%\bigskip
+%\begin{quote}
+% Copyright \copyright YEAR YOUR NAME.
+% Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+% under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
+% or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+% with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
+% A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+% Free Documentation License''.
+%\end{quote}
+%\bigskip
+%
+%If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
+%replace the ``with\dots Texts.'' line with this:
+%
+%\bigskip
+%\begin{quote}
+% with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
+% Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
+%\end{quote}
+%\bigskip
+%
+%If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+%combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+%situation.
+%
+%If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+%recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+%free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
+%to permit their use in free software.

+\begin{drama}
+\franspeaks But are you really well, father? You look so pale.
+
+\moorspeaks Quite well, my son -- what have you to tell me?
+
+\franspeaks The post is arrived -- a letter from our correspondent at
+Leipsic.
+
+\moorspeaks \direct{eagerly} Any tidings of my son Charles?
+
+\franspeaks Hem! Hem! -- Why, yes. But I fear -- I know not -- whether I dare
+ -- your health. -- Are you really quite well, father?
+
+\moorspeaks As a fish in water. Does he write of my son? What means this
+anxiety about my health? You have asked me that question twice.
+
+\franspeaks If you are unwell -- or are the least apprehensive of being so --
+permit me to defer -- I will speak to you at a fitter season. -- \direct{Half
+aside.} These are no tidings for a feeble frame.
+
+\moorspeaks Gracious Heavens? what am I doomed to hear?
+
+\franspeaks First let me retire and shed a tear of compassion for my lost
+brother. Would that my lips might be forever sealed -- for he is your
+son! Would that I could throw an eternal veil over his shame -- for he is
+my brother! But to obey you is my first, though painful, duty -- forgive
+me, therefore.
+
+\moorspeaks Oh, Charles! Charles! Didst thou but know what thorns thou
+plantest in thy father's bosom! That one gladdening report of thee would
+add ten years to my life! yes, bring back my youth! whilst now, alas,
+each fresh intelligence but hurries me a step nearer to the grave!
+
+\franspeaks Is it so, old man, then farewell! for even this very day we
+might all have to tear our hair over your coffin.
+
+\moorspeaks Stay! There remains but one short step more -- let him have his
+will! \direct{He sits down.} The sins of the father shall be visited unto the
+third and fourth generation -- let him fulfil the decree.
+
+\franspeaks \direct{takes the letter out of his pocket}. You know our
+correspondent! See! I would give a finger of my right hand might I
+pronounce him a liar -- a base and slanderous liar! Compose yourself!
+Forgive me if I do not let you read the letter yourself. You cannot,
+must not, yet know all.
+
+\moorspeaks All, all, my son. You will but spare me crutches.
+
+\franspeaks \direct{reads} ``Leipsic, May 1. Were I not bound by an inviolable
+promise to conceal nothing from you, not even the smallest particular,
+that I am able to collect, respecting your brother's career, never, my
+dearest friend, should my guiltless pen become an instrument of torture
+to you. I can gather from a hundred of your letters how tidings such as
+these must pierce your fraternal heart. It seems to me as though I saw
+thee, for the sake of this worthless, this detestable'' -- \direct{\moor covers
+his face}. Oh! my father, I am only reading you the mildest passages --
+``this detestable man, shedding a thousand tears.'' Alas! mine flowed -- ay,
+gushed in torrents over these pitying cheeks. ``I already picture to
+myself your aged pious father, pale as death.'' Good Heavens! and so you
+are, before you have heard anything.

+\chaspeaks The glowing spark of Prometheus is burnt out, and now

+not so much as light a pipe. The present generation may be compared to

+
+A French abbe lays it down that Alexander was a poltroon; a phthisicky

+out of the slaughter at Canna; and blubber over the victories of Scipio,

+\chaspeaks A brilliant reward for your sweat in the battle-field
+truly to have your existence perpetuated in gymnasiums, and your
+immortality laboriously dragged about in a schoolboy's satchel. A
+precious recompense for your lavished blood to be wrapped round
+gingerbread by some Nuremberg chandler, or, if you have great luck, to
+be screwed upon stilts by a French playwright, and be made to move on

+
+\chaspeaks Fie! fie upon this weak, effeminate age, fit for nothing
+but to ponder over the deeds of former times, and torture the heroes of
+antiquity with commentaries, or mangle them in tragedies. The vigor of
+its loins is dried up, and the propagation of the human species has

+\Scene[]{. -- {\scshape Francis von Moor} in his chamber -- in meditation.}
+
+\begin{drama}
+\franspeaks It lasts too long -- and the doctor even says is recovering -- an
+old man's life is a very eternity! The course would be free and plain
+before me, but for this troublesome, tough lump of flesh, which, like
+the infernal demon-hound in ghost stories, bars the way to my treasures.
+
+Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system?
+Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
+To blow out a wick which is already flickering upon its last drop of
+oil -- 'tis nothing more. And yet I would rather not do it myself, on
+account of what the world would say. I should not wish him to be
+killed, but merely disposed of. I should like to do what your clever
+physician does, only the reverse way -- not stop Nature's course by
+running a bar across her path, but only help her to speed a little
+faster. Are we not able to prolong the conditions of life? Why,
+then, should we not also be able to shorten them? Philosophers and
+physiologists teach us how close is the sympathy between the emotions of
+the mind and the movements of the bodily machine. Convulsive sensations
+are always accompanied by a disturbance of the mechanical vibrations --
+passions injure the vital powers -- an overburdened spirit bursts its
+shell. Well, then -- what if one knew how to smooth this unbeaten path,
+for the easier entrance of death into the citadel of life? -- to work the
+body's destruction through the mind -- ha! an original device! -- who can
+accomplish this? -- a device without a parallel! Think upon it, Moor!
+That were an art worthy of thee for its inventor. Has not poisoning
+been raised almost to the rank of a regular science, and Nature
+compelled, by the force of experiments, to define her limits, so that
+one may now calculate the heart's throbbings for years in advance, and
+say to the beating pulse, ``So far, and no farther''? Why should not one
+try one's skill in this line?
+
+And how, then, must I, too, go to work to dissever that sweet and
+peaceful union of soul and body? What species of sensations should I
+seek to produce? Which would most fiercely assail the condition of
+life? Anger? -- that ravenous wolf is too quickly satiated. Care? that
+worm gnaws far too slowly. Grief? -- that viper creeps too lazily for me.
+Fear? -- hope destroys its power. What! and are these the only
+executioners of man? is the armory of death so soon exhausted? \direct{In deep
+thought.} How now! what! ho! I have it! \direct{Starting up.} Terror! What
+is proof against terror? What powers have religion and reason under
+that giant's icy grasp! And yet -- if he should withstand even this
+assault? If he should! Oh, then, come Anguish to my aid! and thou,
+gnawing Repentance! -- furies of hell, burrowing snakes who regorge your
+food, and feed upon your own excrements; ye that are forever destroying,
+and forever reproducing your poison! And thou, howling Remorse, that
+desolatest thine own habitation, and feedest upon thy mother. And come
+ye, too, gentle Graces, to my aid; even you, sweet smiling Memory,
+goddess of the past -- and thou, with thy overflowing horn of plenty,
+blooming Futurity; show him in your mirror the joys of Paradise, while
+with fleeting foot you elude his eager grasp. Thus will I work my
+battery of death, stroke after stroke, upon his fragile body, until the
+troop of furies close upon him with Despair! Triumph! triumph! -- the
+plan is complete -- difficult and masterly beyond compare -- sure -- safe; for
+then \direct{with a sneer} the dissecting knife can find no trace of wound or
+of corrosive poison.
+
+\direct{Resolutely.} Be it so! \direct{Enter \her.} Ha! \emph{Deus ex machina}!
+Hermann!
+
+\herspeaks At your service, gracious sir!
+
+\franspeaks \direct{shakes him by the hand.} You will not find it that of an
+ungrateful master.
+
+\herspeaks I have proofs of this.
+
+\franspeaks And you shall have more soon -- very soon, Hermann! -- I have
+something to say to thee, Hermann.
