<exemplum>

<exemplum> contains a single example demonstrating the use of an element, together with optional paragraphs of commentary.
Attributes Global attributes only
Example 
<exemplum>
   <p>The <gi>name</gi> element can be used for both
   personal names and place names:</p>
   <eg><![&nil;CDATA[
     <q>My dear <name type="person">Mr. Bennet</name>,</q>
     said his lady to him one day, <q>have you heard that
     <name type="place">Netherfield Park</name> is let
     at last?</q>]&nil;]></eg>
   <p>As shown above, the <att>type</att> attribute may be used
   to distinguish the one from the other.</p>
  </exemplum>

Note that an explicit end-tag must be supplied for the paragraph immediately preceding the <eg> element within an <exemplum>, to prevent the <eg> from being mistaken for part of the paragraph.
