  <p>The wrapper sets <strong>3</strong>. The section uses <strong>inherit</strong> to copy it. <code>widows</code> is inherited by default, so this shows an explicit copy.</p>
  <div class="wrap">
    <section>
      <p>First short paragraph.</p>
      <p>Second paragraph with enough text to spill into later columns when the box is short.</p>
      <p>Third paragraph for another break chance.</p>
    </section>
  </div>
</body>
