ENCODING SCHEME

` large thorn
{ large ash
} small ash

% (between double letters) indicates a line break in the original
= lines added to the Caligula ms
* lines added to the Caligula ms that have no relationship to Otho
+ indicate missing letters. Each plus sign indicates one
  missing letter, (the number of spaces indicate the extent of damage and
  hence the reliability of this count)

< ... > enclose interlinear or marginal additions in the mss
" ... ' enclose supplied editorial readings (note that footnotes are
          not included)
( ... ) enclose readings no longer legible but derived from Madden's 
          edition (1847)
