Summary
In this display of discourse structure, text-sequences are indented according to their grade (or level of embedding), and the scales at the top and bottom of the page show the position of indentation of each grade. Significant disjunctures in the text can be recognized by large movements outwards to lower grades, and by rapid entry to succesively higher grades (for example at 4:1; 7:9; 12:1; 15:1; 17:1; 19:11; 21:9; 22:10). Italicized text represents embedded text-sequences which are on a different communication level from surrounding text.
