There are several possible root elements based on our schema since most
elements are defined so they can be used by reference.

Which view are you using to create/edit your document, the "text" view
or the "enhanced grid" view?

Where are you seeing "osisCorpus as a possible sibling of osisText"?

If you are looking at the "schema design" view of the actual schema then
they can be shown as siblings within the choice branch under "osis".

When you "validate" the documents you have above (using the green check
button) the results with XMLSpy are consistent with the schema.  (The
first two are valid if you add in the required <header> and <work>
elements.  The third is not valid because you have both an osisText and
an osisCorpus under osis.)

Does that help any or just fog things up?
