When viewing the "alt-notes" of this text, here are some things you should know.

1. Basics

• Run your curser over the words of the poem
  
• When your cursor changes to show you where a link is, pause the cursor on that link.
  
• Alt text will soon appear describing information about the text.
  

2. Links

• Each link leads back to the alt-note's source of information.
• If the link leads you back to the same page, the source of information is myself.
• If the link takes you somewhere that doesn't make sense, look at the address. For example, OED.com is the Oxford English Dictionary online, so the information came from there. However, if you do not have access to the OED the page will not display correctly.

3. Behind the Scenes

• Alt-notes are created using the alt=text that can be embedded in the mapped sections of an imagemap.
• The entire text is part of a picture; therefore, you cannot "copy" the text itself. However, It can be copied from the source code.
