Thanks to you and to Alex. This rotor is something I've yet to experiment with, 
how you can apparently add things to it - customize your VO experience, as it 
were. . Sounds handy too.

  You can also switch the rotor to speech and swipe down to slow down the rate 
and swipe up to speed it up.

    You are in the right place, but find that adjustable item and simply swipe 
up or down. That is, don't double tap on it first, just move to it and swipe. 
It should adjust in five percent increments. Also be sure that the up/down 
swipe is fast enough; it sounds like you may be moving your finger too slowly, 
and having the gesture interpreted as simply moving your finger on the screen. 
The up/down flick should be as fast as a left/right flick.

      Hi,

      This should be a straightforward thing. How do I adjust the Speech Rate 
of VoiceOver? If I do it in Settings | General | Accessibility | Voiceover, by 
double-tapping on Speaking Rate, Adjustable, and then "swipe up or down with 
one finger to adjust the value", all that happens then is that I run into the 
other VoiceOver settings for Sound Effects, Braille, this and that, but I can 
only slightly adjust the speech rate. (At the moment I am hovering at about 
51%. I'd like to adjust that downward eventually to maybe about 11%.) Am using 
iOS7.1.2 or the latest iOS update on iPhone 5S. I mostly use braille, but 
needed to see if I could help a situation where braille reading/scrolling was a 
bit too slow in a particular newspaper app.)
      TIA for assistance.
