Structure

  The text is divided into five unnumbered <DIV1>s: 
    
    1. <DIV1> Adam Davy's Dreams ...                   = p.11-16
    
    2. <DIV1> The Legend or Life of St. Alexius        = p.17-79
         
         Alexius is divided into four <DIV2>s, corresponding 
         to the four versions of the life of St. Alexius 
         as ennumerated on p.17 (the "longest," "shortest,"
         "shorter," and "longer" versions).
         
         These are printed in four sections, divided 
         from one another by horizontal lines (except
         on p. 19, which is occupied entirely by the
         "longest" (Laud) version).
         
         The bottom two sections are further
         
             divided into two <DIV3>s each, parallel 
             versions of the life from two different MSS.
           
         Treat the six different MSS. versions as 
         running parallel texts as per the Guidelines.
         
          <DIV2>     The first version (Laud 622)
                           = numbered, twelve-line <LG>s (N="1", etc.)
           
          <DIV2>     The second version (Cotton)        
                           = no <LG>s (single, unbroken poem in <L>s).
           
          <DIV2>     The third version, in two MSS:
               <DIV3>    1st MS (Vernon)
                               = unnumbered, six-line <LG>s
           
               <DIV3>    2nd MS (Laud 108)    
                               = unnumbered, six-line <LG>s
           
         <DIV2>     The fourth version, in two MSS:
               <DIV3>    1st MS (Laud 463)
                               = unnumbered, six-line <LG>s
           
               <DIV3>    2nd MS (Trinity)
                               = unnumbered, six-line <LG>s
           
    3. <DIV1> King Solomon's Book of Wisdom     = p.81-90
         
         is undivided, consisting of head, with 
         introductory headnote and single, unbroken poem. 
         
    4. <DIV1> St. Jeremie's 15 Tokens...        = p.91-96
      
       is divided into two <DIV2>s, each with a <HEAD>:
          
         (1) ffiftene toknes...
         (2) Lamentacio...
           
           
    5. <DIV1> Solomon's Coronation              = p.96-98
   
   
Milestones

  Folio references appear in brackets in the margins, 
  in this form: 
    
   [leaf 27]         = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="27a">
   [leaf 27, back]   = <MILESTONE UNIT="folio" N="27b">
   
    and so on. They should be placed at the end of 
    the line opposite which they occur. 
  
Notes
    
  Editorial notes (in brackets) occur sometimes at the 
  beginning of the poem, sometimes at the end of the poem. 
  Those at the beginning of the poem (generally MS. 
  references, with minimal description) should be embedded at 
  the end of the <HEAD>. Those at the end of the poem should 
  be embedded at the end of the final line. 
  
  Other editorial notes occur (in brackets) in the near 
  right margins of the individual versions, identified by 
  superscripts. Embed these at the appropriate place in the
  text, discarding the superscripts.  
  
  Footnotes identified by superscript arabic numerals should 
  be embedded as indicated, discarding superscripts.
  
  The two paragraphs on p.18 should be treated as a headnote, 
  embedding the footnotes within it. 
  
  The prose paragraphs on p.81 should be treated as a headnote, 
  embedding the footnotes within it.
  
  The prose paragraphs on p.91 should be treated as a headnote, 
  embedding the footnotes within it.
