The second "The Lady of Shalott" example would read as follows to a
non-graphical user:

   *** The Lady of Shalott ***

   ** A poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson **

   A painting inspired by the poem.

   On either side the river lie
   Long fields of barley and of rye,
   ...

This would make it look like the first line of the poem was "A painting
inspired by the poem" which is quite confusing.
