Syntax Error AS3 using FlashDevelop

I've search for similar but mine has none of the problems started in others- no naming using protected functions or rogue {}. So can you help- what's wrong?

All for Row 19 (private function display2)

col: 2 Error: Syntax error: expecting identifier before leftbrace.

col: 2 Error: Syntax error: expecting leftparen before leftbrace.

col: 2 Error: Syntax error: expecting identifier before leftbrace.

    package 
    {
        import flash.accessibility.AccessibilityImplementation;
        import flash.display.Bitmap;
        import flash.display.MovieClip;
        import flash.text.TextField;
        import flash.text.TextFormat;
        import flash.display.Sprite;



        /**
         * ...

        public class Start extends Sprite   {
                [Embed(source="../lib/Start.jpg")]
                private var StartClass:Class

                            private function display2():void
                            {
                addChild(StartClass());
                myTextBox.text = "Jabble. Click to Scroll Down (下にスクロールする]をクリック). Press Enter to  Instructions alternate between English and Japanese (translations). Press H for the help web page or put http://wp.me/P3FUQl-n in your web browser.  Beneath is the Board and to the right is the Box.

                myTextBox.width = Box.width;  
                myTextBox.height = Box.height; 
                myTextBox.multiline = true;

                myTextBox.background = true; 
                myTextBox.border = true; 

                var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); 
                format.font = "Verdana"; 
                format.color = 0xFF0000; 
                format.size = 10; 

                myTextBox.defaultTextFormat = format; 
                addChild(myTextBox); 
                myTextBox.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownScroll); 
                        }       


        }

You have made a few mistakes there. First of all you are adding a class without using the new before it. It needs to be addChild(new StartClass()) instead of addChild(StartClass()).

And seconly, you haven't declared the variable myTextBox. Probably something like var myTextBox:TextField = new TextField();.
