I think it would be hard to read 80-column plain text on a phone
footprint.  I could try to convert it to text/gemini, but there would be
issues with figuring out where to insert ``` lines.  Gutenberg texts are
from 1991 to the present, and they don't all have exactly the same internal
layout.

I would think that a GUI Gemini browser should be able to remember the
scroll position.  Lagrange definitely does: open it on a long page, close
it, reopen it: the page will be in the same position.

This great college [Trinity], of this ancient university [Cambridge],
has seen some strange sights. It has seen Wordsworth drunk and Porson
sober. And here am I, a better poet than Porson, and a better scholar
than Wordsworth, somewhere betwixt and between.  --A.E. Housman
