Bowerbird,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m pretty happy with the way the web page came out.  To get a decent looking Kindle book I redid the &lt;spans&gt; (which Kindlegen ignores) with non-breaking spaces.  Yuck, I know, but I think the results justified it.  The nice thing about non-breaking spaces is that it is clear when a line wraps to the next line and should be read as one line.  With blockquotes the line is split into two lines and it is not clear what the poet&#39;s intention was.</div>
