Choosing a Spell

First, you must choose which spell to cast. If you're a cleric, druid, experienced paladin, experienced ranger, magus or wizard, you select from among spells prepared earlier in the day and not yet cast. If you're a bard, inquisitor or sorcerer, you can select any spell you know, provided you are capable of casting spells of that level or higher. To cast a spell, you must be able to speak. Additionally, you must concentrate to cast a spell. If a spell has multiple versions, you choose which version to use when you cast it. You don't have to prepare (or learn, in the case of a bard or sorcerer) a specific version of the spell. Once you've cast a prepared spell, you can't cast it again until you prepare it again. (If you've prepared multiple copies of a single spell, you can cast each copy once.) If you're a bard or sorcerer, casting a spell counts against your daily limit for spells of that spell level, but you can cast the same spell again if you haven't reached your limit.
