Added useful rendition elements in anticipation of CSS reworking.
Marking specific renditions as incidental.
Handle base cases of incidental titles.
Extracted small-caps style into rendition element using XSLT.
Set status to 'proofed'. Tweaked CSS.
Generated file, added revisionDesc and set status to 'generated'.
In the Woodlands
In the forest lawns I see
Little ring-plots fenced around,
So that shrub and sapling tree
Thrive in safe and happy ground ;
And I wonder, Cannot I
Keep some little plots apart,
Open to the wind and sky,
For the growth of mind and heart ?
