I had forgotten to mention that :-( I put several extra spaces before the line continuation parts. The number of spaces depends on the layout of the poem, but I have not failed to visually disambiguate the various uses of spaces.
Thanks for replying! Can you explain in more detail? I'd be willing to send you one of my poems to have you markup if that would be helpful for demontration purposes. If we need to take this off-list, that's fine, because I'm not sure it involves PG as a whole.
