According to your comment and this guide

I'll give you example how to get a text file's content into your program.

Example 1: Read all text and save into string.

 string alltext= System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"read.txt");
 Engine.Speak(alltext); //put the string into your command

Example 2: Read each line of file and save into string array.

 string[] eachlinetext = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\Public\TestFolder\WriteLines2.txt");
 Engine.Speak(eachlinetext[0]); // speak the first line of the file

Hope it helps you. Also , Happy Programming!!
