<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
<div class="epigraph"><em><div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Now fitted the halter, now traversed the cart, And often took leave, — but seemed loath to depart!*</div>
<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;* The motto alludes to the Author returning to the stage * repeatedly after having taken leave.</div>
<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior.</em>
</div>

Should be:

<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
<div class="epigraph"><em>
<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Now fitted the halter, now traversed the cart, And often took leave, — but seemed loath to depart!*</div>
<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;* The motto alludes to the Author returning to the stage * repeatedly after having taken leave.</div>
<div class="justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior.</div></em>
</div>

Adobe DE does not care, because it treats each HTML file separately, but FBReader merges all the HTML into one ebook on startup.

I also suggest adding an option to remove the "justify" of each paragraph. Or, better still, promote the justify and the initial spaces of each paragraph (added by BD) into the CSS file (with an option to remove the justify).
