Sure.  I'm going to declare some entities internal and external,
hopefully with self-explanatory names.  Here is the main document,
example.xml:

	<!DOCTYPE SYSTEM "example.dtd" [
		<!ENTITY internallyDeclaredInternal "foo">
		<!ENTITY internallyDeclaredExternal SYSTEM "foo.ent">
		]>
	etc. etc.

Then here is the external subset, example.dtd:

	<!ENTITY externallyDeclaredInternal "foo">
	<!ENTITY externallyDeclaredExternal SYSTEM "foo2.ent">
	<!ENTITY % externalParameterEntity SYSTEM "example.par">
	%externalParameterEntity;
	etc. etc.

Then here is a parameter entity, example.par:

	<!ENTITY inExternalPEDeclaredInternal "foo">
	<!ENTITY inExternalPEDeclaredExternal SYSTEM "foo3.ent">

And so on.
