I do want to point out that even if you are successful, that third stair-stepped indent is not going to be very pretty on 99% of devices. Typical eReader at the default font size has 60 characters per line, right? By the time Jane Reader cranks up her font size, that third indented line is going to be wrapping like there's no tomorrow.

Thanks a lot! That info was enough to find RbnJrg's post here:

The saving grace is that the lines I posted are as long as things get (most are shorter), so even at 18pts it usually wouldn't wrap on a larger e-reader. I'll play with that solution and decide whether it's viable or not.
