Dramatis personae as tables

Normally, we format the dramatis personae as a single-spaced list. Here, the printed page looks more like a two-column table, and that's how it was formatted. Long lines were not rejoined, and blank lines were placed between each entry to make the result more readable.

As with many other examples in this category, asking for guidance in the project discussion would be an excellent idea.
