Joe,

The following should, I hope, help. Use view source and I hope you'll see how "editable" the text is and also be able to follow how the nested list structure works. (I've modified this text from one of my web pages for this example.)

The Prickle Holly Bush

Come slack your horse cries George,
Come slack it for a while,
For I think I see my father,
Coming over yonder stile.

Have you brought gold,have you brought silver,

To set me free,

For to keep my body from the cold gaol walls,

And my neck from the high gallows tree.

I've no gold,I've no silver,

To set you free,

For I have come for to see you hang,

All hang upon the high gallows tree.

Oh the Prickle Holly Bush,it pricks,it pricks,

It pricks my heart full sore,

And if ever I get out of the prickle holly bush,

I'll never get in there any more.

Come slack your horse cries George,
Come slack it for a while,
For I think I see my mother,
Coming over yonder stile.

Etc.

Come slack your horse cries George,
Come slack it for a while,
For I think I see my sister,
Coming over yonder stile.

Etc.

Come slack your horse cries George,
Come slack it for a while,
For I think I see my sweet-heart,
Coming over yonder stile.

Have you brought gold,have you brought silver,

To set me free,

For to keep my body from the cold gaol walls,

And my neck from the high gallows tree.

I've brought gold,I've brought silver,

To set you free,

For I don't think to see you hang,

All hang upon the high gallows tree.

Oh the prickle holly bush it pricks it pricks,

It pricks my heart full sore,

And if ever I get out of the prickle holly bush,

I'll never get in there any more.
