[!note] Two navigation cautions
The author and work MOCs below this one are machine-generated — their descriptions are
templates with no topical vocabulary, so they are scaffolding for descending, not an index for
deciding. And some are very wide: Gregory the Great’s Register of Letters lists 421 children,
Basil’s Letters 325. Read for orientation, then go to the leaf.
