The Life and Death of Richard the Third

Use a separate css file - explain hide explanation

Separate CSS   By default the “Open the text” and “Download the text” buttons supply files with CSS embeded. If you want to change the style, tick this box and supply a modified version of shakmob.css. That file contains instructions for one change you might wish to make: suppressing the Act.Scene.Line numbers against each speech.

Note that Kindle appears to demand embeded CSS. If you want different formatting there, download the text, make the changes and email to Kindle yourself.

Line and speech counts are added to the text - rarely used
   
I have told Kindle to accept emails from PoSP@FastMail.com

Kindle   Before you can send stuff to Kindle you must log in to your Amazon account and find your way to “Manage Your Content and Devices” / “Settings”. On this page find “Personal Document Settings” and within that “Send-to-Kindle E-Mail Settings”. Make a note of the email address for your Kindle - this is the address you must enter in the box above.
Vital   A little lower in the same page you will see “Approved Personal Document E-mail List”. It is vital that you add to this list PoSP@FastMail.com .
Multiple   This facility only supports one email address at a time. If you wish to send to more than one of your Kindles, try sending to the oldest one. You may well find that the document has become visible to your other Kindles.
Otherwise find your way to “Manage Your Content and Devices” / “Content” in your Amazon account and do it from there. Remember that these are “Docs” rather than “Books” in Amazon terms.

The two lines at 1.3.68: "makes him to send …" are an expanded version of one line in First Folio (FF). At the start of 1.4 FF has Clarence talking to Keeper, has 1.4.66 as "Ah Keeper, Keeper, I have done these things" and at 1.4.75 Keeper says "give your grace good rest" and exits, Brackenbury enters, says "sorrow breaks seasons … and continues with the other speeches attributed to him in this version. At 1.4.249 between "relent and save your souls" and "beggar pities not" FF has the lines in a different order but the reading given here is provided by other editors.
At 3.2.113 Priest: "I'll wait upon your lordship" is not in all editions. At 3.3.16 "when she exclaim'd on Hastings, you and" is missing. Circa 3.4.33 Hastings: "I thank your grace" and Bishop of Ely: "My lord?" are not in FF. At 3.5.50 there is some disagreement among editors as to whether "I never look'd … Mistress Shore" is spoken by the Lord Mayor or by Buckingham but definitely the next few lines are Buckingham's not Richard's. FF omits 3.7.43 Buckingham "No, by my troth, my lord".
FF omits 4.2.55 Catesby: "My lord?" Line 4.4.147 "Where is kind … Grey" should be re-arranged and split between Queen and Duchess.
In 5.3 for four of the Ghosts, the word "Ghost" appears as though it were part of the preceding speech..
