                      2: The file "memo" contains several paragraphs,
                      3: where a paragraph starts at any line that begins with
                      4: a blank.  It is desired to remove those blanks at the beginning
                      5: of lines, and instead mark the paragraphs by inserting
                      6: a line containing only
                      7: 
                      8: .PP
                      9: 
                     10: before each paragraph.  Change the file in that
                     11: way and then rewrite it; then type "ready".

                     13: The Ascent of the Riffelberg
                     14: by Mark Twain
                     15: 
                     16: .PP
                     17: I sat silent some time, then turned to Harris and said:
                     18: ``My mind is made up.''
                     19: Something in my tone struck him; and when he glanced
                     20: at my eye and read what was written there, his face paled
                     21: perceptibly.  He hesitated a moment, then said:
                     22: ``Speak.''
                     23: .PP
                     24: I answered, with perfect calmness:
                     25: ``I WILL ASCEND THE RIFFELBERG.''
                     26: .PP
                     27: If I had shot my poor friend he could not have fallen from
                     28: his chair more suddenly.  If I had been his father he
                     29: could not have pleaded harder to get me to give up my
                     30: purpose.  But I turned a deaf ear to all he said.  When he
                     31: perceived at last that nothing could alter my determination,
                     32: he ceased to urge, and for a while the deep silence was broken only
                     33: by his sobs.  I sat in marble resolution, with my
                     34: eyes fixed upon vacancy, for in spirit I was already
                     35: wrestling with the perils of the mountains, and my friend sat
                     36: gazing at me in adoring admiration through his tears.  At
                     37: last he threw himself upon me in a loving embrace and
                     38: exclaimed in broken tones:
                     39: ``Your Harris will never desert you.  We will die together!''
                     40: .PP
                     41: I cheered the noble fellow with praises, and soon his fears
                     42: were forgotten and he was eager for the adventure.  He
                     43: wanted to summon the guides at once and leave at two in
                     44: the morning, as he supposed the custom was; but I explained that nobody
                     45: was looking at that hour; and that the start in the dark
                     46: was not usually made from the village but
                     47: from the first night's resting-place on the mountainside.  I
                     48: said we would leave the village at 3 or 4 p.m. on the morrow;
                     49: meantime he could notify the guides, and also let the public
                     50: know of the attempt which we proposed to make.
                     51: .PP
                     52: I went to bed, but not to sleep.  No man can sleep when
                     53: he is about to undertake one of these Alpine exploits.  I
                     54: tossed feverishly all night long, and was glad enough when
                     55: I heard the clock strike half past eleven and knew it was
                     56: time to get up for dinner.
