produced their noisy music, and accompanied their
Pyrrhic dances with kettledrums and the sound of arms,

[Footnote 1: The Koribantes remind us of the Salii of the Latins, to whom
Numa gives the arms and the words, to be sung leaping. According to
Ovid's distich--

"Jam dederat Salii (a saltu nomina ducunt)
  Armaque et ad certos verba canenda modos."

Poetry with attributions

This footnote contains both prose and poetry. As explained in the previous example, some post-processors prefer the attribution to be in the same no-wrap as the quotation (as shown here), while others prefer them to be in separate no-wraps (as shown in the previous example). If it isn't covered in the project comments or discussion, ask; if nobody answers, either way will be acceptable.
