Eleemosynary opens with Echo, the teenaged granddaughter of Dorothea, spelling out the title of the play. This foreshadows how significant the word and its meaning will ultimately become. This also reveals Echo's obsession with spelling words, which foreshadows the relationship between Echo and her mother.
