[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." --<i>Fasti</i>, iii. 389. */ ] |
Within footnotes
Format poetry in footnotes the same way as any other poetry.
A blank line is not needed between closing tags of no-wrap markup and footnote markup. Some post-processors prefer attributions to be placed within the same no-wraps as the poem or quotation, while others prefer them to be enclosed in a separate pair of no-wraps. If the project comments and discussion do not state a preference, it's best to ask.
Ignore a stanza's leading quotation mark when indenting its other lines. (Don't indent by an extra space.)
