Encoding principles:

Correction

This digital edition incorporates the addenda and corrigenda to the Bodleian Dinnshenchas printed by Whitley Stokes on p. 496 of Folklore 4 (1893). These corrections are distinguished from the editorial emendations of the 1892 printing by the “resp” attribute, with the identifier “ws”.

Normalisation

This text has not been normalised.

Quotation

Quotation marks enclosing direct speech, whether single or double in the printed source, are encoded in TLH with the <q> tag. The same tag is also used in situations where direct speech has not been explicitly marked by the use of quotation marks.

Hyphenation

End-of-line hyphenation of the printed edition has not been retained, and wherever a page-break occurs in the midst of a hyphenated word, the break is marked after the end of the hyphenated word.
