Note: Just read over the guidelines again - only thing I forgot was to add the to the back end of the spoken lines. I can't right now, but I'll go back over all this tomorrow and make another pull request with just those edits, then I figure you can approve both at once. Sorry about that! Wasn't sure how to edit my original commit. If there's a way, let me know. My first comments are below.

Hey! Went through lines 6256-6638 and added persname, placename, and any spoken lines (said who="XXX"). Notes are below. Loved working on this - neat way to close read. Let me know how I can keep helping!

Looks great! The tags should actually be <persName> and <placeName>, in camelCase, rather than <persname> and <placename>, but that's OK--I'll just do a global find/replace on it at some point. (Opened #55 about this. Feel free to tackle it if you like, but don't feel like you have to.)

And these are really interesting edge-cases! Last names are typically good (the more information the better), and something like who="mad nun" wouldn't be out of place with the current markup. The reference to the Metamorphoses would be for #35. We don't have a markup convention for that yet, but I imagine it'd be something like <cit> or even the allusion form of att.interpLike.

Anyway, great stuff! Merging into the project.

Whoops. Just noticed the missing </said> tags you mentioned in your email. Opened #56 for that. Feel free to fix it if you have time. Otherwise I'll get to it, eventually.
