Structure (Major divisions)

  <FRONT> contains only the title pages.
  
  <BODY> contains the main text
  
  <DIV1>s
  
     with TYPE="section" are used whenever there is a 
     bold heading in the text. Like this:
      
      
     (p.1)   <DIV1 TYPE="section">
             <HEAD>Incipit Prologus de Historia Britannie ...</HEAD>
             
     (p.5)   <DIV1 TYPE="section">
             <HEAD>Dare Frigius, qui historiam Troianorum ...</HEAD>
             
     (p.6)   <DIV1 TYPE="section">
             <HEAD>Ego Galfridus Arthurus Monemutensis,   ...</HEAD>
             
     (p.7)   <DIV1 TYPE="section">
             <HEAD>Genealogia primi regis Troge &amp; Enee ...</HEAD>
             
     (p.8)   <DIV1 TYPE="section">
             <HEAD>Tot terre sunt in vniuerso mundo.</HEAD>
  
  <LG>s
  
     are used whenever there is a break in the text marked by a
     large capital letter, but no heading.
 
 
 
     note: Ignore the heading on p. 455--
 
         Þe Story of Englande. 
              (Continued.)
           
     --which just signals the volume break between
     parts one and two.


Milestones

  Folio references appear in small type in brackets just inside
  the column of line numbers, like this:
  
  [leaf 7.]                = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="7a:1">
  [leaf 7, col. 2.]        = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="7a:2">
  [leaf 7, back.]          = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="7b:1">
  [leaf 7, back, col. 2.]  = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="7b:2">
  [leaf 8]                 = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="8a:1">
  [leaf 8, col. 2.]        = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="8a:2">

Notes

   (1) most notes appear at the foot of the page, keyed to the text
       by superscripted reference numbers. Treat these as usual
       as <NOTE PLACE="foot">.
       
   (2) A few words in bold type appear alongside the text, not
       quite in the margin. Encode these as <NOTE PLACE="marg">.

  symbol that looks like this:
