by either party must be in writing and must be given or refused in the terms in which they
are written, and it is the duty of the judge to write "given" or "refused,"
as the case may be, on the document and sign his name thereto, which thereby becomes a part
of the record. Charges which are marked "given" by the trial judge must be taken
by the jury with them on retirement, and those "refused" must be retained by the
clerk. The court shall, after the conclusion of his charge to the jury, read such written
charges as he has given for the parties in a clear and audible voice, saying to the jury,

as the case may be, and are correct statements of the law to be taken by you in connection
with what has already been said to you." The refusal of a charge, though a correct statement
of the law, shall not be cause...
