These are the words that should be spoken out loud by the character, as this is the dialogue, and what the other characters of the play are meant to hear. The word "Viola" only indicates which character will say the words. However, it is not meant to be read aloud. The words between parentheses (<em>He smiles with admiration as they leave to go to the Duke</em>) are meant to describe what the character does, but are only meant to guide the actor, not said aloud to the audience or other characters.
