Then my example above becomes:

\item{1)} The old lady pulled her spectacles down and looked over them about 
the room; then she put them up and looked out under them. She seldom or never 
looked through them for so small a thing as a boy; they were her state pair, 
the pride of her heart, and were built for "style," not service -- she could 
have seen through a pair of stove-lids just

.  It's not what I want.  Maybe I misunderstood what you meant.
