I got this code in the combox of this post at the Smithy. Sullivan posted a lovely little poem by Notker of St Gall and I will now put it in a column-box to get a feel for this HTML.

| Hoc praesens diecula loquitur praelucida, adaucta longitudine, quod sol verus radio sui luminis vetustas mundi depulerit genitus tenebras. Nec nox vacat novi sideris luce, quod magorum oculos terruit scios: Nec gregum magistris defuit lumen, quos praestrinxit claritas militum dei. Gaude, dei genetrix, quam circumstant obstetricum vice concinentes angeli gloriam deo. | This present little day proclaims, illumined, its length increased, that the true Sun by the ray of its light has driven off the ancient darknesses of the world. Nor does this night lack the light of the new star, which terrified the knowing eyes of the magi: Nor was light lacking for the masters of their flocks, who were stricken by the brightness of the soldiers of God. Rejoice, O god-bearer, who instead of midwives are surrounded by angels singing in harmony glory to God. |
