But why bemoan it if for just this once
I so forgot me--sheer worn out, and loath
Only by force of heirloom garb to glitter,
Pass current just as minted coins pass current
By take-for-granted worth, and share with statues
That in the sacred temple-niches stand
A blind and blockish sacrosanctity?
You can't undo what's done.

Indenting stage directions

This project's comments stated that right-justified stage directions on lines of their own should be indented four spaces. This is not standard, but there are no standards for this, so check each project's comments and discussion, and if it's not covered, ask.
