Speaker:There
Speaker:are
Speaker:many
Speaker:men
Speaker:in
Speaker:the

Speaker:and
Speaker:a
Speaker:good
Speaker:number

Speaker:problem?
Speaker:That
Speaker:he
Speaker:was

Speaker:there
Speaker:are
Speaker:three
Speaker:options.
Speaker:You
Speaker:could
Speaker:force
Speaker:him
Speaker:to
Speaker:pick
Speaker:between
Speaker:wolf
Speaker:and
Speaker:man,
Speaker:an
Speaker:agonizing
Speaker:divorce
Speaker:from

Speaker:true
Speaker:being,
Speaker:simply
Speaker:so
Speaker:you
Speaker:do
Speaker:not
Speaker:have
Speaker:a
Speaker:werewolf
Speaker:in

Speaker:town,
Speaker:which
Speaker:may
Speaker:come
Speaker:to
Speaker:be
Speaker:a
Speaker:blessing
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:long
Speaker:run -
Speaker:for
Speaker:him,
