The lection behind the bracket is from MS W. This run of COLLATE excludes purely orthographic variations and most inflectional and other differences deriving from dialect translation in the manuscripts. Other filters can be set to include some or all dialectal variations, some or all orthographic variants. This particular file was created to facilitate construction of the trial archetype.
