Forms of Markup: (3) Procedural

Milton expresses this idea most clearly later in the tract:

.sk 3 a;.in +10 -10;.ls 0;.cp 2 I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat. .sk 3 a;.in -10 +10;.cp 2;.ls 1

Similarly, Wordsworth . . . .


Compare procedural markup to text with presentational and descriptive markup and that without any markup at all.
