            //	separate the formatting from the text. If the bullet includes
            //	formatting then the new text layout will start with a paragraph
            //	verse, which we'll ignore. And it could contain any
            //	number of other verses, but a numbering definition in Word supports
            //	only a single run, so we just concatenate the text from all the
            //	verses, and apply the first verse format we find. Note that our
            //	report design language doesn't support including lower level numbers

            //	a common numbering style. That is, Word doesn't have lists, but
