You could try version 2.13 of XIST (http://www.livinglogic.de/Python/xist)
Code looks like this:
from ll.xist.ns import html, specials
text = "Number 1 ... the <b>larch</b>"
e = html.div(
html.h1("And now for something completely different"),
html.p(specials.literal(text))
)
print e.asBytes()
This prints:
<div><h1>And now for something completely different</h1><p>Number 1 ...
the <b>larch</b></p></div>
I hope this is what you need.
Bye,
Walter Dörwald
