If you don't want to point and link to the exact location on the page 
(and if you want to avoid too much encoding) a simple solution (yet not 
as powerful as Torsten's suggestion) could be as follows:
<locus from="1r" to="3v">fol. 1r, l. 10 to fol. 3v, l.5</locus>

If you prefer to store all information in the markup - not sure about 
something like this:
<locus from="1r_10" to="3v_5"/>
