In breve

Un’edizione critica di una poesia di Milton. Un verso ogni cinque è numerato a margine, e le note dopo la poesia rinviano ai versi che spiegano tramite il loro numero.

Che cosa comporrai

Lycidas, l’elegia di Milton per Edward King, composta come piccola edizione critica di 138 × 216 mm nel testo e nella grafia dei Poems del 1645. La prima pagina si apre sotto un rametto di alloro, con il titolo in alte maiuscole Imbue sopra la nota introduttiva che Milton aggiunse nel 1645. Seguono i 193 versi, uno per riga di composizione, con una riga bianca tra le strofe e i versi brevi rientrati. Un verso ogni cinque ha il suo numero in verde alloro, in una colonna di 6 mm sul margine esterno: a destra dei versi su un recto, a sinistra su una pagina verso. I versi non portano richiami di nota. Le note riempiono le due pagine dopo la poesia, e ognuna si apre sul numero del suo verso, nello stesso Libre Franklin verde dei numeri a margine.

Questa ricetta risponde a

  • Come numero un verso ogni cinque nel margine di una poesia e collego le note a quei numeri di verso?
  • Come compongo poesia: una riga per verso, spazi tra le strofe, rientri sporgenti per i versi che vanno a capo, niente sillabazione?
  • Come faccio le note a piè di pagina?
  • Come creo un layout a colonna e mezza, con una colonna di testo larga e una colonna laterale stretta?
  • Come aggiungo spazio verticale tra due blocchi, se le righe vuote non hanno effetto?

La risposta breve

script.js · righe 30–43nel codice completo
// The poem is one :::verse block, written as 1645 prints it: a line of verse a line, a blank
// line between verse paragraphs and two spaces before a short line. lineNumbers counts its
// lines of verse (a line that turned over would still count once) and prints the multiples
// of five beside their lines, on their baselines. position 'side' puts them in the side
// column of the one-and-a-half layout, flush with its edge next to the verse.
const lineNumbers = {
  enabled: true,
  count: 'verse', // the lines of :::verse poems; the notes are prose and not counted
  interval: 5,
  restart: 'document', // one count through the poem
  position: 'side',
  fontFamily: LABEL, fontSize: pt(7.5), color: col('laurel'),
};

Preparazione

#1 · Conta i versi

Il codice di questo passo è la risposta breve qui sopra. lineNumbers conta i versi della poesia e stampa il numero di uno ogni cinque accanto al suo verso, sulla sua linea di base, in Libre Franklin da 7,5 pt verde alloro (numeri di riga). count: 'verse' conta solo i versi delle poesie :::verse, quindi la nota sul testo e le note dopo la poesia non ricevono numeri, e un verso troppo lungo per la giustezza conterebbe comunque una volta sola: la sua prosecuzione non riceve numero. restart: 'document' mantiene un unico conteggio per tutta la poesia. I numeri vengono dipinti accanto a righe che l’impaginazione ha già composto, quindi non spostano mai una riga.

#2 · Un canale largo sei millimetri

script.js · righe 47–63nel codice completo
const PT = 25.4 / 72; // mm in a point
const [TRIM_W, TRIM_H] = [138, 216]; // mm
const [TOP, INNER] = [21, 20]; // mm
const LINES = 34; // lines of verse to a page
const BOTTOM = TRIM_H - TOP - LINES * LEAD * PT; // 21.08 mm
const [MEASURE, GUTTER, CHANNEL] = [80, 4, 6]; // mm: the longest line of Lycidas is 78.1 mm
const OUTER = TRIM_W - INNER - MEASURE - GUTTER - CHANNEL; // 28 mm beyond the numbers
const layout = {
  layoutType: 'oneAndHalf',
  sideColumnRole: 'floats', // the side column takes the numbers, never text
  sideColumnSide: 'outer', // right of the verse on a recto, left of it on a verso
  // 6 of 90 mm. The zero is Libre Franklin's widest figure, so '100' (4.9 mm) is the widest number.
  sideColumnPercent: (CHANNEL / (MEASURE + GUTTER + CHANNEL)) * 100,
  gutterWidth: mm(GUTTER),
};
const page = { sizePreset: 'custom', width: mm(TRIM_W), height: mm(TRIM_H), dpi: 150,
  margins: { top: mm(TOP), bottom: mm(BOTTOM), left: mm(INNER), right: mm(OUTER), mirror: true } };

Con sideColumnRole: 'floats', la colonna stretta di un layout oneAndHalf non riceve mai testo (tipi di layout), e position: 'side' vi compone i numeri, allineati al suo bordo vicino ai versi; l’intercolonna di 4 mm è lo spazio tra un verso e il suo numero. sideColumnPercent è una quota della gabbia del testo, quindi il pen la ricava dai millimetri: 6 su 90 mm, abbastanza per il numero più largo. Le cifre di Libre Franklin sono proporzionali, e a 7,5 pt lo zero è la più larga (1,8 mm, contro 1,2 mm dell’uno), quindi 100, a 4,9 mm, è il numero più largo della poesia; 180 e 190 misurano 4,8 mm. 'outer' segue i margini speculari, quindi i numeri stanno a destra dei versi su un recto, allineati a sinistra, e a sinistra su una pagina verso, allineati a destra: su entrambi cominciano o finiscono alla stessa distanza dai versi. La colonna dei versi è di 80 mm, 1,9 mm più del verso 31, il più lungo, quindi nessun verso va a capo.

#3 · La poesia è un unico blocco :::verse

script.js · righe 67–72nel codice completo
// A blank line between verse paragraphs leaves one line of the grid (stanzaSpace, 1). Two
// leading spaces set a short line in 2 em (indentStep, 1 em a space here, against the default
// half em). The verse is ragged, like all the text here; a line too long for the measure would
// turn over and hang 2 em past its own start, but none does at 80 mm.
const verse = { indentStep: em(1) };
const verseStyles = [{ id: 'verse', hangingIndent: em(2) }];

Un blocco :::verse conserva la poesia così com’è scritta: ogni riga di Markdown un verso, una riga bianca tra le strofe e gli spazi prima di una riga come suo rientro (:::verse). La recinzione nomina lo stile dei versi e align=start, che allinea la poesia al margine invece di centrarla sul suo verso più lungo. Ogni paragrafo di versi è una strofa, e tra due strofe c’è una riga bianca della griglia (stanzaSpace, una riga). I quattordici versi brevi di Milton, tra cui il verso 4, cominciano con due spazi, e indentStep: em(1) li trasforma in 2 em. Lo spazio tra le strofe viene eliminato in testa a una pagina, quindi la pagina 2 comincia con il verso 15 in cima alla gabbia del testo, e lo stacco di strofa tra i versi 14 e 15 non si vede (vedi Errori frequenti).

#4 · L’alloro, il titolo e la nota introduttiva

script.js · righe 76–101nel codice completo
const OPENER_LINES = 20; // of the page's 34: the first verse paragraph, 14 lines, takes the rest
const at = (id, edge, y) => ({ anchor: { to: id, edge }, offset: { x: mm(0), y: mm(y) } });
const title = (size, tracking, placement) => ({ kind: 'text', id: 'title', content: '{titleText}',
  fontFamily: DISPLAY, fontWeight: 300, fontSize: pt(size), lineHeight: 1,
  letterSpacing: pt(tracking), textTransform: 'uppercase', color: col('ink'), placement });
const opener = { enabled: true, minHeight: pt(OPENER_LINES * LEAD), slot: { elements: [
  // The laurel ends above the kicker, so the depth comes from the texts: kicker, title and
  // headnote reach down 20 lines. minHeight is a floor at the same depth, so a shorter
  // headnote leaves the verse on line 21.
  { kind: 'image', id: 'laurel', resourceId: 'laurel',
    placement: { anchor: { to: 'page', edge: 'top-right' }, size: { width: mm(104) } } },
  { kind: 'text', id: 'kicker', content: '{author}', fontFamily: LABEL, fontWeight: 500,
    fontSize: pt(8), letterSpacing: pt(1.6), textTransform: 'uppercase', color: col('laurel'),
    placement: at('container', 'top-left', 50) },
  title(66, 2, at('#kicker', 'below', 1)),
  // # Lycidas {headnote="In this Monody …"}: the whole headnote in italic, ragged; at
  // 64 mm no word stands alone.
  { kind: 'text', id: 'headnote', content: '{attr.headnote}', fontFamily: TEXT, italic: true,
    fontSize: pt(9.5), lineHeight: 13 / 9.5, color: col('ink'), align: 'left',
    placement: { ...at('#title', 'below', 3), size: { width: mm(64) } } },
] } };
// The poem opens on a recto. Its design stays in the column, and the laurel, anchored to the
// page's corner, is painted above the text block all the same. With the default
// marginBottom the verse would start on line 22 and send line 14 to page 2.
const poem = { level: 1, breakBefore: { enabled: true, parity: 'odd' },
  advancedDesign: opener, marginBottom: pt(0) };

Il titolo di primo livello stampa un progetto grafico invece del proprio testo (span e progetto grafico avanzato). {author} viene dal frontmatter, e la nota introduttiva da un attributo sulla riga del titolo, # Lycidas {headnote="In this Monody …"} (attributi dei titoli). L’alloro finisce sopra l’occhiello, quindi la profondità dell’apertura viene dai testi sotto di esso: l’occhiello, 50 mm sotto la sommità della gabbia del testo, il titolo e le quattro righe della nota introduttiva scendono per 20 delle 34 righe della pagina, e la prima strofa, 14 versi, occupa il resto. minHeight è un minimo alla stessa profondità: riduci la nota introduttiva a tre righe e i versi cominciano comunque alla riga 21, dove senza il minimo salirebbero alla riga 20. marginBottom: pt(0) tiene il margine predefinito del titolo fuori dallo spazio; con esso, i versi comincerebbero alla riga 22 e manderebbero il verso 14 a pagina 2. Il progetto grafico resta nella colonna, e l’alloro, ancorato all’angolo superiore destro della pagina, viene comunque dipinto dal rifilo: solo il piede di una colonna taglia un progetto grafico tenuto al suo interno.

#5 · Note legate ai numeri di verso

script.js · righe 105–124nel codice completo
const NOTE = 8.6; // pt: the notes, and the note on the text
const noteStyles = [
  { id: 'textnote', fontSize: pt(NOTE), lineHeight: pt(NOTE * 1.33) },
  // The note on the text ends on the grid, 2.4 mm below its last line; half a line more
  // leaves one blank line before the first note.
  { id: 'note', fontSize: pt(NOTE), lineHeight: pt(NOTE * 1.33), hangingIndent: em(1.6),
    marginTop: pt(LEAD / 2) },
  { id: 'colophon', fontFamily: LABEL, fontSize: pt(7), lineHeight: pt(9.5), color: col('muted'),
    marginTop: pt(LEAD) },
];
// :chip[8]{style="line"}: Linden Hill has no bold, so the number changes face and colour.
// The chip has no fill, outline or side padding, so nothing is drawn around the number.
const chipStyles = [{ id: 'line', backgroundEnabled: false, borderWidth: pt(0), paddingX: pt(0),
  fontFamily: LABEL, fontSize: em(0.9), color: col('laurel') }];
// # Notes {style="notes"} opens the next page under the title's capitals, smaller. A heading
// style keeps the level's break unless it sets its own (gotcha: style-inherits-break). Its
// design stays in the column too, so the title lines up with the notes on either page.
const notesHead = { id: 'notes', breakBefore: { enabled: true, parity: 'any' },
  advancedDesign: { enabled: true,
    slot: { elements: [title(30, 1, at('container', 'top-left', 0))] } } };

Le note sono legate ai numeri di verso, quindi i versi non portano richiami di nota, e seguono la poesia come commento, senza togliere righe alle sue pagine. Ogni nota si apre sul suo numero di verso, scritto :chip[8]{style="line"}, poi le parole che spiega in corsivo e una parentesi quadra di chiusura. Il chip non ha riempimento, contorno né padding laterale, quindi cambiano solo il carattere e il colore: Libre Franklin da 7,7 pt verde alloro (stili dei chip). Linden Hill non ha grassetto, quindi i numeri sono marcati da un cambio di carattere. Lo stile delle note rientra di 1,6 em ogni riga dopo la prima, il che lascia liberi i numeri a sinistra, e le note sono composte in bandiera, come i versi. # Notes {style="notes"} passa a pagina 8 e compone il suo titolo nelle maiuscole dell’apertura, a 30 pt.

Pagina 8: ogni nota si apre sul numero verde del suo verso; i versi delle pagine da 1 a 7 non portano richiami.

#6 · Testatine per parità

script.js · righe 128–149nel codice completo
const HEAD = 13; // mm from the trim to the running heads' baseline
// A design text's first baseline sits 0.8 of a line below the top of its box: 0.96 em at the
// default lineHeight of 1.2, which the running heads keep.
const BASE = 1.2 * 0.8;
const head = (id, parity, content, x, size = 7.5, extra = {}) => ({ kind: 'text', id, parity,
  content, pages: 'body', fontFamily: LABEL, fontWeight: 500, fontSize: pt(size),
  letterSpacing: pt(1.3), textTransform: 'uppercase', color: col('muted'), ...extra,
  placement: { anchor: { to: 'page', edge: parity === 'even' ? 'top-left' : 'top-right' },
    offset: { x: mm(x), y: mm(HEAD - BASE * size * PT) } } });
const folio = { fontFamily: TEXT, fontWeight: 400, letterSpacing: pt(0), color: col('ink') };
const header = { elements: [
  head('verso-folio', 'even', '{pageNumber}', OUTER, 10, folio),
  head('verso-head', 'even', '{author}', OUTER + 9),
  head('recto-head', 'odd', '{chapterTitle}', -(OUTER + 9)), // LYCIDAS, then NOTES
  head('recto-folio', 'odd', '{pageNumber}', -OUTER, 10, folio),
] };
// The two openers carry their folio at the foot instead, at the outer edge of the text block.
const drop = (parity, edge, x) => ({ ...head(`drop-${parity}`, parity, '{pageNumber}', 0, 10,
  folio), pages: 'opener', placement: { anchor: { to: 'page', edge },
  offset: { x: mm(x), y: mm(-12) } } });
const footer = { elements: [drop('odd', 'bottom-right', -OUTER),
  drop('even', 'bottom-left', OUTER)] };

Ogni elemento è ancorato alla pagina e filtrato da parity e pages: 'body' (elementi di testo). La pagina verso porta l’autore e il recto {chapterTitle}, che dice «LYCIDAS» sopra la poesia e «NOTES» sopra le note, perché le note si aprono con un titolo proprio. Il folio sta sul bordo esterno della gabbia del testo; le due pagine d’apertura, 1 e 8, lo portano invece al piede.

Bitter constraint, and sad occasion dear, Compels me to disturb your season due: For *Lycidas* is dead, dead ere his prime, Young *Lycidas*, and hath not left his peer: Who would not sing for *Lycidas?* he knew Himself to sing, and build the lofty rhyme. He must not flote upon his watry bear Unwept, and welter to the parching wind, Without the meed of som melodious tear. Begin then, Sisters of the sacred well, That from beneath the seat of *Jove* doth spring, Begin, and somwhat loudly sweep the string. Hence with denial vain, and coy excuse, So may som gentle Muse With lucky words favour my destin’d Urn, And as he passes turn, And bid fair peace be to my sable shrowd. For we were nurst upon the self-same hill, Fed the same flock, by fountain, shade, and rill. Together both, ere the high Lawns appear’d Under the opening eye-lids of the morn, We drove a field, and both together heard What time the Gray-fly winds her sultry horn, Batt’ning our flocks with the fresh dews of night, Oft till the Star that rose, at Ev’ning, bright Toward Heav’ns descent had slop’d his westering wheel. Mean while the Rural ditties were not mute, Temper’d to th’ Oaten Flute, Rough *Satyrs* danc’d, and *Fauns* with clov’n heel, From the glad sound would not be absent long, And old *Damœtas* lov’d to hear our song. But O the heavy change, now thou art gon, Now thou art gon, and never must return! Thee Shepherd, thee the Woods, and desert Caves, With wilde Thyme and the gadding Vine o’regrown, And all their echoes mourn. The Willows, and the Hazle Copses green, Shall now no more be seen, Fanning their joyous Leaves to thy soft layes. As killing as the Canker to the Rose, Or Taint-worm to the weanling Herds that graze, Or Frost to Flowers, that their gay wardrop wear, When first the White thorn blows; Such, *Lycidas*, thy loss to Shepherds ear. Where were ye Nymphs when the remorseless deep Clos’d o’re the head of your lov’d *Lycidas*? For neither were ye playing on the steep, Where your old *Bards*, the famous *Druids* ly, Nor on the shaggy top of *Mona* high, Nor yet where Deva spreads her wisard stream: Ay me, I fondly dream! Had ye bin there—for what could that have don? What could the Muse her self that *Orpheus* bore, The Muse her self, for her inchanting son Whom Universal nature did lament, When by the rout that made the hideous roar, His goary visage down the stream was sent, Down the swift *Hebrus* to the *Lesbian* shore. Alas! What boots it with uncessant care To tend the homely slighted Shepherds trade, And strictly meditate the thankles Muse, Were it not better don as others use, To sport with *Amaryllis* in the shade, Or with the tangles of *Neæra*’s hair? Fame is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise (That last infirmity of Noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious dayes; But the fair Guerdon when we hope to find, And think to burst out into sudden blaze, Comes the blind *Fury* with th’ abhorred shears, And slits the thin spun life. But not the praise, *Phœbus* repli’d, and touch’d my trembling ears; *Fame* is no plant that grows on mortal soil, Nor in the glistering foil Set off to th’ world, nor in broad rumour lies, But lives and spreds aloft by those pure eyes, And perfet witnes of all judging *Jove*; As he pronounces lastly on each deed, Of so much fame in Heav’n expect thy meed. O Fountain *Arethuse*, and thou honour’d flood, Smooth-sliding *Mincius*, crown’d with vocall reeds, That strain I heard was of a higher mood: But now my Oate proceeds, And listens to the Herald of the Sea That came in *Neptune*’s plea, He ask’d the Waves, and ask’d the Fellon winds, What hard mishap hath doom’d this gentle swain? And question’d every gust of rugged wings That blows from off each beaked Promontory, They knew not of his story, And sage *Hippotades* their answer brings, That not a blast was from his dungeon stray’d, The Ayr was calm, and on the level brine, Sleek *Panope* with all her sisters play’d. It was that fatall and perfidious Bark Built in th’ eclipse, and rigg’d with curses dark, That sunk so low that sacred head of thine. Next *Camus*, reverend Sire, went footing slow, His Mantle hairy, and his Bonnet sedge, Inwrought with figures dim, and on the edge Like to that sanguine flower inscrib’d with woe. Ah! Who hath reft (quoth he) my dearest pledge? Last came, and last did go, The Pilot of the *Galilean* lake, Two massy Keyes he bore of metals twain, (The Golden opes, the Iron shuts amain) He shook his Miter’d locks, and stern bespake, How well could I have spar’d for thee young swain. Anow of such as for their bellies sake, Creep and intrude, and climb into the fold? Of other care they little reck’ning make, Then how to scramble at the shearers feast, And shove away the worthy bidden guest. Blind mouthes! that scarce themselves know how to hold A Sheep-hook, or have learn’d ought els the least That to the faithfull Herdmans art belongs! What recks it them? What need they? They are sped; And when they list, their lean and flashy songs Grate on their scrannel Pipes of wretched straw, The hungry Sheep look up, and are not fed, But swoln with wind, and the rank mist they draw, Rot inwardly, and foul contagion spread: Besides what the grim Woolf with privy paw Daily devours apace, and nothing sed, But that two-handed engine at the door, Stands ready to smite once, and smite no more. Return *Alpheus*, the dread voice is past, That shrunk thy streams; Return *Sicilian* Muse, And call the Vales, and bid them hither cast Their Bels, and Flourets of a thousand hues. Ye valleys low where the milde whispers use, Of shades and wanton winds, and gushing brooks, On whose fresh lap the swart Star sparely looks, Throw hither all your quaint enameld eyes, That on the green terf suck the honied showres, And purple all the ground with vernal flowres. Bring the rathe Primrose that forsaken dies. The tufted Crow-toe, and pale Gessamine, The white Pink, and the Pansie freakt with jeat, The glowing Violet. The Musk-rose, and the well attir’d Woodbine, With Cowslips wan that hang the pensive hed, And every flower that sad embroidery wears: Bid *Amaranthus* all his beauty shed, And Daffadillies fill their cups with tears, To strew the Laureat Herse where *Lycid* lies. For so to interpose a little ease, Let our frail thoughts dally with false surmise. Ay me! Whilst thee the shores and sounding Seas Wash far away, where ere thy bones are hurld, Whether beyond the stormy *Hebrides*, Where thou perhaps under the whelming tide Visit’st the bottom of the monstrous world; Or whether thou to our moist vows deny’d, Sleep’st by the fable of *Bellerus* old, Where the great vision of the guarded Mount Looks toward *Namancos* and *Bayona*’s hold; Look homeward Angel now, and melt with ruth. And, O ye *Dolphins*, waft the haples youth. Weep no more, woful Shepherds weep no more, For *Lycidas* your sorrow is not dead, Sunk though he be beneath the watry floar, So sinks the day-star in the Ocean bed, And yet anon repairs his drooping head, And tricks his beams, and with new-spangled Ore, Flames in the forehead of the morning sky: So *Lycidas* sunk low, but mounted high, Through the dear might of him that walk’d the waves; Where other groves, and other streams along, With *Nectar* pure his oozy Lock’s he laves, And hears the unexpressive nuptiall Song, In the blest Kingdoms meek of joy and love. There entertain him all the Saints above, In solemn troops, and sweet Societies That sing, and singing in their glory move, And wipe the tears for ever from his eyes. Now *Lycidas* the Shepherds weep no more; Hence forth thou art the Genius of the shore, In thy large recompense, and shalt be good To all that wander in that perilous flood. Thus sang the uncouth Swain to th’ Okes and rills, While the still morn went out with Sandals gray, He touch’d the tender stops of various Quills, With eager thought warbling his Dorick lay: And now the Sun had stretch’d out all the hills, And now was dropt into the Western bay; At last he rose, and twitch’d his Mantle blew: To morrow to fresh Woods, and Pastures new. :::

Esempio Markdown · 72 righe · content.notes.en.md :::paragraphs{style="textnote"} *The text* is that of *Poems of Mr. John Milton* (London, 1645), pages 57 to 65. Lycidas had first been printed, without the headnote, in *Justa Edovardo King naufrago* (Cambridge, 1638), the volume of elegies for King. Spelling and capitals follow 1645, and so does the italic of names in the poem. A verse paragraph that 1645 marks by indenting its first line is marked here by a blank line; the short lines are indented. The notes are keyed to the line numbers in the margin. ::: :::paragraphs{style="note"} :chip[1]{style="line"} *Yet once more*] Hebrews 12.26, ‘Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.’ :chip[1–2]{style="line"} *Laurels … Myrtles … Ivy*] evergreens and poets’ crowns: the laurel is Apollo’s, the myrtle Venus’s, the ivy Bacchus’s. :chip[3]{style="line"} *crude*] unripe (Latin *crudus*). The berries are picked before their season, as King died before his. :chip[8]{style="line"} *Lycidas*] Edward King (1612–1637), fellow of Christ’s College, Cambridge, drowned on 10 August 1637 when his ship, bound from Chester for Dublin, struck a rock off the Welsh coast. Lycidas is a herdsman in Theocritus, *Idyll* 7, and in Virgil, *Eclogue* 9. :chip[12]{style="line"} *flote … bear*] float … bier. :chip[15]{style="line"} *Sisters of the sacred well*] the Muses, who dance round the spring and the altar of Zeus on Helicon in the first lines of Hesiod’s *Theogony*. :chip[23]{style="line"} *the self-same hill*] Christ’s College, Cambridge, where Milton studied from 1625 to 1632 and King from 1626. :chip[36]{style="line"} *Damœtas*] a herdsman in Theocritus and Virgil. Some commentators see in him a tutor of Christ’s, William Chappell or Joseph Mede; neither identification is certain. :chip[53–55]{style="line"} *Druids … Mona … Deva*] the Druids’ island is Anglesey, *Mona* in Tacitus, *Annals* 14.30; the Dee (*Deva*) reaches the sea below Chester, where King sailed. Its shifting course was read as an omen for England and Wales, hence *wisard*. :chip[58]{style="line"} *the Muse her self that Orpheus bore*] Calliope. The women of Thrace tore Orpheus apart, and his head, still singing, went down the Hebrus and over the sea to Lesbos (Ovid, *Metamorphoses* 11.1–55). :chip[64]{style="line"} *uncessant*] unceasing; so 1638, 1645 and 1673. :chip[70–71]{style="line"} *That last infirmity of Noble mind*] Tacitus, *Histories* 4.6: the desire for glory is the last thing even the wise put off. :chip[75]{style="line"} *the blind Fury*] Atropos, the Fate who cuts the thread of life; Milton makes her a Fury, and blind. :chip[77]{style="line"} *touch’d my trembling ears*] Apollo plucks the poet’s ear in Virgil, *Eclogue* 6.3–4, to call him back from kings and battles to pastoral. :chip[85–86]{style="line"} *Arethuse … Mincius*] the fountain of Syracuse and the river of Mantua: the country of Theocritus and the country of Virgil. :chip[96]{style="line"} *Hippotades*] Aeolus, son of Hippotes, keeper of the winds. :chip[103]{style="line"} *Camus*] the god of the Cam, who stands for Cambridge; he walks as slowly as his river flows. :chip[106]{style="line"} *that sanguine flower*] the hyacinth, sprung from the blood of Hyacinthus, whose petals were said to carry AI, a cry of grief (Ovid, *Metamorphoses* 10.215). :chip[109]{style="line"} *The Pilot of the Galilean lake*] St Peter, the fisherman given the keys of heaven (Matthew 16.19), mitred here as the first bishop. :chip[114–117]{style="line"} *Anow … Then*] enough … than. :chip[119]{style="line"} *Blind mouthes*] Ruskin, in *Sesame and Lilies* (1865): a bishop is one who sees and a pastor one who feeds, so a blind mouth is a clergyman who does neither. :chip[128]{style="line"} *the grim Woolf*] usually read as the Church of Rome, which was making converts at the court of Charles I. :chip[130]{style="line"} *that two-handed engine*] no reading has settled it. Readers have proposed the sword of the archangel Michael, the axe laid to the root of the trees in Matthew 3.10, the two Houses of Parliament and St Peter’s two keys. :chip[132]{style="line"} *Alpheus*] the river said to run under the sea from Greece and rise in Arethusa’s fountain (line 85). Called on here, it brings the poem back to pastoral after St Peter’s speech. :chip[138]{style="line"} *the swart Star*] Sirius, the Dog Star of the hottest weeks, which scorches what it looks on. :chip[156]{style="line"} *Hebrides*] King’s body was never found. :chip[160–162]{style="line"} *Bellerus … the guarded Mount … Namancos*] Bellerus is made from Bellerium, the Roman name of Land’s End. From St Michael’s Mount the archangel looks out over the sea to Galicia, where Mercator’s atlas marks Namancos, near the castle of Bayona. :chip[164]{style="line"} *Dolphins*] like the dolphin that carried the singer Arion to shore at Taenarum (Herodotus 1.24). :chip[176]{style="line"} *unexpressive nuptiall Song*] the song past expressing at the marriage of the Lamb (Revelation 19.7–9). :chip[183]{style="line"} *Genius of the shore*] the guardian spirit of a place: King will keep those who cross the sea he drowned in. :chip[193]{style="line"} *fresh Woods*] in the spring of 1638 Milton left England for Italy. ::: :::paragraphs{style="colophon"} Set in Linden Hill, Imbue and Libre Franklin (SIL Open Font License).

Varianti

#Numera un verso ogni dieci

Le poesie lunghe sono spesso numerate di dieci in dieci; la colonna di 6 mm non richiede modifiche.

-  interval: 5,
+  interval: 10,

#Tieni ogni numero a destra dei versi

Con la colonna laterale fissata a destra, i numeri stanno a destra dei versi su ogni pagina, il che sulle pagine verso li mette vicino al dorso.

-  sideColumnSide: 'outer', // right of the verse on a recto, left of it on a verso
+  sideColumnSide: 'right', // right of the verse on every page

Errori frequenti

Errore frequente

Valori degli attributi: niente { o }; virgolette semplici per un valore con "

Il valore di un attributo finisce alla graffa di chiusura, quindi non può contenere { o }. Un valore che contiene una virgoletta doppia va tra virgolette semplici; il simbolo del dollaro va bene. Attributi dei titoli →

Errore frequente

Uno stile di titolo eredita l’interruzione di pagina del suo livello

Una voce di headingStyles prende dal suo livello di titolo ogni campo che omette, breakBefore compreso. Un indice o un colophon con lo stile di un H1 dopo un :::pagebreak eredita parity 'odd' e finisce dietro una pagina bianca. Dai a uno stile del genere breakBefore: { enabled: false }. Stili di titolo →

  • Lo spazio tra le strofe viene eliminato in testa a una pagina, quindi lo stacco tra i versi 14 e 15, che cade nel passaggio da pagina 1 a pagina 2, non si vede. Se la tua edizione deve mostrare ogni stacco, dai invece un rientro al primo verso di ogni strofa, come fa l’edizione del 1645: due spazi iniziali su quella riga.
  • I numeri condividono la colonna laterale con qualsiasi riquadro o didascalia laterale aggiungi. Un numero che cade su uno di essi viene comunque stampato, e la Sandbox lo segnala (lineNumberOverlap); sposta il riquadro, o componi i numeri nel margine esterno con position: 'outer'.
  • Le note continuano a scrivere a mano i loro numeri di verso (:chip[8]{style="line"}): una nota non può ancora puntare a un verso e stamparne il numero. Se cambi il testo, confronta i numeri nelle note con quelli a margine.
