Basic prose tagging

Simple, intuitive elements:

  <div type="chapter">
    <head>Chapter 1: The Manor House</head>
    <p><name type="person">Charles</name> hadn’t visited the manor
      house since <date when="1955-04-10">Easter, 1955</date>,
      and now he remembered why.</p>
    <p>“Hullo”, he called out as he walked up the drive, and
      then, as if to himself, “To be or not to be?, to walk or 
      not to walk, <del>to talk or not to talk</del> ...oh, <emph>hang</emph>
      it all!” His meditation on Hamlet was interrupted 
      as he collided with a peacock. “Sacré bleu!” 
      he <del>exclaimed</del><add>cried</add> with irritation,
      his sang-froid completely deserting him.
      <add>It was going to be a long week.</add>
      His catalog of irritations included:
      <list>
        <item>1. The weather</item>
        <item>2. The peacocks</item>
        <item>3. His meagre grasp of French</item>
        <item>4. The ridiculous remoteness of the site</item>
      </list>
    </p>
    <trailer>End of Chapter 1</trailer>
  </div>
