      <respons target=p2
              locus=rend resp=LB>

Note

The `<respons>` element is designed for cases in which fine-grained information about specific aspects of the markup of a text is desirable for whatever reason. Global responsibility for certain aspects of markup is usually more simply indicated in the TEI header, using the `<respStmt>` element within the title statement, edition statement, or change log.
