New description:

 When picking up a second robe in the Hounfour, room 7, Gabriel says

 > A robe for prosperity.

 But the subtitle says

 > A robe for prosterity.

 "Prosterity" is not a word that exists in English. It should be
 "prosperity".

 This is a bug in the original game, as can be seen on
 [https://youtu.be/7bMinzf8NnQ?si=H6lYyfCL1mhOktog&t=30002 this Let's Play
 timestamp] running in DOSBox.

 == Reproduction Steps
 1. Load the attached save game
   * Day 10 has started
   * Gabriel is in the Hounfour, room 7
   * Gabriel has picked up one robe
 2. Using the "Pick Up" action, select the second robe on the rack to the
 left of Gabriel

 As above, the subtitle does not match the spoken word, and the word in the
 subtitle is not a real word.

 == Tested on
 * Gabriel Knight 1 via Steam, Windows version
 * ScummVM 2.9.1 for macOS
