Wish 2: I wish for a text-to-speech device capable of reading from this scroll with perfect accuracy.
Wish 3: delegated to the device from #2.
Text-to-speech device provided. It reads from the scroll with perfect accuracy and low speed. It will take a few hundred years to complete this task.
You will need to change the batteries once an hour; it you forget, it starts reading from the start of the scroll again. (And where do you get a large supply of size Q batteries, in any case?)
