Caesar, I,1	[1.1] All Gaul is divided into three parts, one of which the Belgae inhabit, the Aquitani another, those who in their own language are called Celts, in our Gauls, the third. All these differ from each other in language, customs and laws.
Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres, quarum unam incolunt Belgae, aliam Aquitani, tertiam qui ipsorum lingua Celtae, nostra Galli appellantur. Hi omnes lingua, institutis, legibus inter se differunt. Gallos ab Aquitanis Garumna flumen, a Belgis Matrona et Sequana dividit.

• Each sentence makes up a paragraph.
• Line breaks and indentations mark the various clauses of the sentence.
• Bullets are used to offset parallel clauses and enumerations.
• Sometimes larger or different fonts are used to indicate what belongs together.
