Chunked Samples

 

Four examples of rearrangement of the DS data putting the text first, chunking the information into groups, and omitting the labels except where necessary.  The image captions are not repeated here because presumably they follow on each text as necessary (not all texts have images).  This outline does not display a mechanism for showing that a given part or a given text is not an only child.

 

The examples are:

--Plimpton MS 021
