You don't need the nested echoes. Just concatenate instead:
echo '<br /><br />
<form method="post" action="sendemail.php">
<label for="subject">Subject of email:</label><br />
<input id="subject" name="subject" type="text" value="' . $subject .
'"><br />
<label for="elvismail">Body of email:</label><br />
<textarea id="elvismail" name="elvismail" rows="8"
cols="40">"' . $text . '" </textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
</form>';
In short you're doing this :
echo 'Some HTML text here ' . $subject . ' some more HTML text ' . $text . '
and finally other stuff here';
