If your aim is (as mine generally) ONLY html output, your aim might best
be achieved by the html construct Ordered List:
<ol type=1 class=n>
<li>IT WAS THE TIME when the trees were in bloom,</li>
<li>when new leaves grew lush in the woods,</li>
<li>and the meadows were grassy green;</li>
<li>when the birds twittered sweet songs to welcome</li>
<li>the dawn, and all things were ardent with joy.</li>
<li>The son of the Widowed Lady of the Forsaken Forest</li>
<li>arose and heartily saddled his hunting horse,</li>
<li>grabbed three javelins</li>
</ol>
