[blank line] [blank line] [blank line] [blank line] POEM FOR RECITATION. THE TWO GREAT CITIES. [blank line] [blank line] /* Side by side the two great cities, Afar on the traveller's sight. One, black with the dust of labor, [*** most of poem omitted to save space] They know not the tomb from the palace, They dream not they ever have died; God be thanked, they <i>never will</i> know it, Till they live, on the other side! */ /* <sc>Samuel Miller Hageman.</sc> */ |
Major and minor divisions
In books, we often judge whether something is a "major division" treated like a chapter or a "minor division" treated like a section based on the table of contents. However, magazine issues often lack a table of contents, so use your judgment or ask.
Attributions in separate no-wraps
Left-justify an attribution on its own line, separated from the poem by a blank line (the attribution isn't part of the last stanza). It was right-justified, so it should be in no-wraps. Some projects' comments specify that attributions should be in separate no-wraps from the poem; others may specify that they should be in the same ones. If no preference is given, you may do it either way, but for the sake of consistency within the project, ask for guidance in the project discussion and state which way you are doing it (so others may follow your lead). If a later reply asks for them to be done the other way, please consider revising your pages.
