Yesterday, I finished the transcription of the Sonnet 1609. All the references have been completed for this text too. The only task that remains is to proofread the last 20 pages of transcribed text and encoding, however, I'll have to first wait until MH returns so that he can upload my changes to the sonnet_1609.xml file online. In the meantime, I have been working on the tasks for the "Forest nuptiale" that are listed in LCC's 21/07/10 blog posting:

1) Both items 1 and 2 on LCC's list are not really issues because the <text rendition="layoutDesc"> is found in <text type="book" xml:lang="fr-1694acad" rendition="layoutDesc">. The only question I have to ask MH is whether or not it is necessary to include <text type="book" xml:lang="fr-1694acad". Emurphy had also already encoded all the front matter, thus a title page already exists. So instead, I have been working on reformatting the text of the front matter as there are some elements that need to be fixed so that it appears correctly online.

2) As for the marginal notes, I'm not sure why they aren't showing up online but a possible solution is to use <argument> and <ab> tags as this seemed to work from the Satyre Menippée. I'll have to check with MH before I go ahead and make these changes.

3) Finally, LCC has gone over with me the tasks of writing the remainder of the references for the FN and proofreading the transcribed text, which I will be working on in the weeks to come.
