sed to read line by line and input into another file
I have two files.

Fileone contains
Code:
text string one
text string two
text string three

Filetwo contains
Code:
Name:
Address:
Summary:
Name:
Address:
Summary:
Name:
Address:
Summary:

I would like to use sed to read each line of file one and put it at the end of the summary line of file two.
Like this
Code:
Name:
Address:
Summary:Text String one
Name:
Address:
Summary:Text string two
Name:
Address:
Summary: Text String three


I have tried several things. But this got close.
Code:
while read line;
do
  sed "/Summary/s/$/$line/g" filetwo 
done < fileone

This puts text string one from file one onto each of the Summary lines. I would in fact like to have text string two put on the second Summary field. I though sed should read a file line by line anyway so the while may not be necessary but like I say it got me closest. I also tried placing double quotes around the "$line" this seemed to take each text string properly but gave an error due to incorrect expression. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks..

monodocs2html

monodocs2html(1)					      General Commands Manual						  monodocs2html(1)

NAME

       monodocs2html - Translate Monodoc XML to HTML

SYNOPSIS

       monodocs2html -source:SOURCE_DIR -dest:DEST_DIR [OPTIONS]*

DESCRIPTION

       monodocs2html has been obsoleted by mdoc(1).  See the mdoc-export-html(1) man page.

       monodocs2html is a program that creates HTML documentation from the Monodoc documentation XML files.

OPTIONS

       -dest:DEST_DIR
	      Write the HTML files into the directory DEST_DIR .

       -dumptemplate
	      Dump  the  default  page	template to standard output so that you can use it as a base for a new template for use with the -template
	      option.

       -ext:FILE_EXTENSION
	      FILE_EXTENSION is the file extension for generated files.

	      This defaults to html .

       -?, -help
	      Show program argument information.

       -onlytype:TYPE
	      Only generate HTML for the type TYPE .

       -source:SOURCE_DIR
	      SOURCE_DIR is the base directory containing the Monodoc XML documentation.

	      This directory should contain an index.xml file, the namespace-name.xml files (one for each namespace), and namespace-name  directo-
	      ries (one for each namespace), which will contain the type.xml files holding the monodoc documentation.

       -template:TEMPLATE
	      Generate HTML using the page template TEMPLATE .

       -V, -version
	      Display version and licensing information.

TEMPLATE FORMAT

       The template file is an XSLT which needs to process the following input XML document:
	    <Page>
	      <CollectionTitle>Collection Title</CollectionTitle>
	      <PageTitle>Page Title</PageTitle>
	      <Summary>Page Summary</Summary>
	      <Signature>Type Declaration</Signature>
	      <Remarks>Type Remarks</Remarks>
	      <Members>Type Members</Members>
	      <Copyright>Documentation Copyright</Copyright>
	    </Page>
       The generated HTML also makes use of the following CSS classes, which should be defined so that output is nicely formatted:

	      .CollectionTitle

	      .PageTitle

	      .Summary

	      .Signature

	      .Remarks

	      .Members

	      .Copyright

	      .Section

	      .SectionBox

	      .NamespaceName

	      .NamespaceSummary

	      .MemberName

	      .MemberSignature

	      .MemberBox

	      .Subsection

	      .SubsectionBox

	      .SignatureTable

	      .EnumerationsTable

	      .CodeExampleTable

	      .MembersListing

	      .TypesListing

	      .InnerSignatureTable

	      .TypePermissionsTable

HTML LINKS

       All  members  within the HTML file have a id attribute to permit linking to a specific member.  The value of the id attribute is the String
       ID of the specified member.  See the STRING ID FORMAT section of the monodocer man page for more information.
