The blog program works much better than the older version

Let's check the format of this poem that I had previously posted on the old blog.

SONG.
Set by Mr. John Laniere.
TO LUCASTA, Going to the Warres.

I.

TELL me not (Sweet) I am unkinde,
That from the Nunnerie
Of thy chaste breast, and quiet minde,
To Warre and Armes I flie.

II.

True ; a new Mistresse now I chase,
The first Foe in the Field ;
And with a stronger Faith imbrace
A Sword, a Horse, a Shield.

III.

Yet this Inconstancy is such,
As you too shall adore ;
I could not love thee (Deare) so much,
Lov'd I not Honour more.

Ok, this is much better than the old blogging program that Blogger had. It retains the format perfectly, and is more user friendly.
