I saw this component somewhere that had a poem that scrolled slowly automatically, like you would if you read a page and it doesn't all fit in the window, such as with this window where I am typing this. Now, if there was an automatically scrolling feature, it would be important for a reader to be able to have some control, like scrolling back to the top, pause scrolling, etc.
So, what would be needed is a pause button, to stop the scrolling, a start/play button to resume, and a way to manually move up and down, to scroll up and down.
