Caesura codes

In general, give the number of the foot in which the caesura occurs, using m to denote a masculine caesura at the end of the first long syllable of the foot, f to denote a feminine caesura at the end of the first short syllable of the dactyl in the foot, and d when the caesura occurs at the end of the foot. Some examples:

Ṓmnĭbŭs, ī́n \| māgnā́ \| Chrīstṓ \| fămŭlā́ntĭbŭs ū́rbe,	2m 3m 4m
