/*
Nor yet on Thetis, she who bade her daughters
For him be fisherfolk of pearl and coral
That thus his decking fail not of its fill.
But <i>this</i> sword--why, I knew the man that forged it,
And him by whom <i>this</i> diadem was pieced!

<sc>Kan.</sc> Eh, Gyges!

<sc>Thoas.</sc>         Sire, fair faith speaks out of me!
If I am overbold, 'tis for your welfare.
Believe my words, the many thousand folk
That stream t'assembly hither,--ay, albeit
They walk in finer wool and fare the daintier,--
Are just as fond or pious-prim as I.
This crown here and your head--these are for them,
Your henchman vouches, halves of a single whole,
And in like grade this sword here and your arm.

Inline markup

Remember to look for inline markup. With complex pages, do one kind of formatting at a time: do the spacing, then the alignment, then the inline formatting, then the no-wraps and block quotes. Then, re-check the result!
