 London. Michaelmas term lately over, and the Lord Chancellor sitting in
 Lincoln's Inn Hall. Implacable November weather. As much mud in the streets
 as if the waters had but newly retired from the face of the earth, and it
 would not be wonderful to meet a Megalosaurus, forty feet long or so,
 waddling like an elephantine lizard up Holborn Hill.

#example-element {
 columns: 3;
 column-rule: solid;
 text-align: left;
}
