I know if a character speaks for more than 3 lines you would indent, and then write exactly what the character says without any quotation, and then say the act scene and line numbers from the play, such as
Towards him
I made
but he was
aware of me
(I.i.136-149)
But what If I wanted to quote different parts of speech of the same character. How would I list the line numbers? Would I do it like this:
But he, his own affections'counselor, Is to himself-I will not say how true-
But to himself so secret and so close
So far from sounding and discovery...
Could we but learn from whence his sorrows grow,
We would as willingly give cure as know.
(I.i.138-141,144-145)
Is this correct, would I add a comma, and then list the other line numbers? PLease help me.
