   <p>Bream, Doctor: there is not much to be said for bream.</p>
</sp>
<sp>

Note

The who attribute on this element may be used either in addition to the <speaker> element or as an alternative.

This element is taken over from the TEI scheme (see http://www.tei-c.org/P4X/ref-SP.html). However, its content model has been redefined without the <seg> element, to avoid interference with the declaration of <seg> as a global element.
