Orach Chayim Siman 680 is a source-text unit from the Shulchan Arukh with 2 seifim. Its reading map separates the practical rule, its conditions and the points that need comparison with the surrounding text.
What to track
Read each seif as a separate step. Identify the action, the condition that limits it and any distinction between cases before moving to the next seif.
Study lens
Look for Shabbat law and sacred time. The source text remains the primary evidence; this note offers a structured way to enter it rather than replacing close reading.

Original text
<b>שלא להניח הנרות סמוך לפתח בליל שבת. ובו ב סעיפים:</b><br>בליל שבת צריך ליתן שום דבר לחוץ בין הנרות לפתח בשביל הרוח שלא יכבה הנרות כשפותח את הדלת:
Not to Leave the Lights Near the Entrance on the Sabbath Eve, 2 Seifim:
בערב שבת אסור לקבוע הנרות בדלת עצמה אחורי הדלת ויש מי שמתיר: [ועיין לעיל סי' רע"ו סעיף א']:
On the Sabbath Eve it is prohibited to mount the lights on the door itself, behind the door, but there is [an opinion] that permits [this]. [And see above Section 277 Paragraph 1.]
