Re: [sword-devel] Second versions, Scottish Metric Psalter

In response to DM, I think that's the wrong approach, as it would be confusing to mix two different metres for how the same Psalm was metrified in English. What's required is whole chapters as 2 different variants. There are 25 lines containing the word 'version': \s2 First Version \s2 Second

If you make one module do it as variations verse by verse. JSword works on this basis. Each needs to be well-formed XML. Otherwise it will toss the markup. Do the canonical headings vary too? That might pose a single module problem. David and I have discussed supporting multiple KJV modules

The Scottish Metric Psalter is a curious translation - on the one side famously literal, on the other side deliberately in a poem form. It has now been used for hundreds of years in public worship, in some churches as an additional source of hymns, in others exclusively so as the only permitted
