The revised text is tagged line-by-line with the First-Edition sentence IDs it derives from. Three things happen during revision, all kept visible so the lineage stays intact:
merged A grammatical sentence that runs across several First-Edition IDs (the earlier ID ends in : ; , rather than a full stop). Tagged e.g. 4.21+4.22 and counted once.
break A single First-Edition ID whose span contains a second sentence beginning mid-line (the break is shown as ‖). Tagged a/b; not subdivided for sorting or the Home view.
added A verse line introduced in the revision (tagged #n a on the preceding First-Edition line), lengthening the sentence.
relocated A First-Edition ID whose lines appear in two separated positions in the revised order.
Two or more consecutive First-Edition sentences (left, each in its own box) joined into one revised sentence (right). Every revised line is tagged with its First-Edition id#line.
A single First-Edition sentence (left) divided into two sentences at a line break in the revision — a full stop replaces what was a comma/semicolon at line-end. The revised sub-sentences (right, boxes a / b) are counted separately for sorting.
A second sentence beginning mid-line (not at a line break). The revised unit is shown divided at the break (right) but is kept as one sentence for sorting (the lines cannot be split cleanly).
The IDs 103.36, 103.37, 119.5, 94.3, 94.4 have their lines redistributed across two separated runs. Left: the original First-Edition sentence; right: the revised sentences carrying its lines, with id#line tags showing the reordering.
Verse lines new to the revision (absent from the First Edition), tagged #n a and highlighted on the right.
