If we do that we are back to the case of never having a certain
hierarchy that contains the text. Writing a stylesheet for presentation
cannot cope with:
<p><verse>here is some text</verse></p>
and
<verse>some text <p>some more text</verse> some more</p>
even worse would be: <verse>some text<p>some more text</p></verse>
assuming that there are other cases that are <p><verse>some
text</verse><verse>some more text</verse></p>
Sorry, it is just one of the limitations of XML.
