Example
<p>
 <said>Our minstrel here will warm the old man's heart with song, dazzle him with jewels and
   gold</said>, a troublemaker simpered. <said>He'll trample on the Duke's camellias, spill
   his wine, and blunt his sword, and say his name begins with X, and in the end the Duke
   will say, <said>Take Saralinda, with my blessing, O lordly Prince of Rags and Tags, O
     rider of the sun!</said>
 </said>
</p>
Example
<p>
 <said aloud="true" rend="pre(“) post(”)">Hmmm</said>, said a small voice in his ear. <said aloud="true" rend="pre(“) post(”)">Difficult. Very difficult. Plenty of courage, I see.
   Not a bad mind either. there's talent, oh my goodness, yes — and a nice thirst to prove
   yourself, now that's interesting. … So where shall I put you?</said>

<p>Harry gripped the edges of the stool and thought, <said aloud="false" rend="italic">Not
   Slytherin, not Slytherin</said>.</p>
