Layout 1
| Text text text text text text | I recommend the second
| text text text text text text. | layout. (See below.)
| 1 Text text. |
| 2 Text text. |
| Text text text text text text |
| text text text text text text. |
| * Text text. |
| * Text text. |
Layout 2
| Text text text text text text | This layout makes it clearer that
| text text text text text text. | there is an end (after one line)
| 1 Text text. | to what "2" labels. Layout 1
| 2 Text text. | could lead the reader to think
| Text text text text text text | that "2" labels the next two
| text text text text text text. | lines as well... and possibly even
| * Text text. | the asterisked lines.
