^paragraphs( [item ,] N )^

Exports the first N paragraphs of the text of specified item (note). If item is not specified, ^paragraphs( N )^ equates to ^paragraphs( this, N )^.

This method effectively allows insertion of only part of ^text^ whilst using the same inline evaluations for mark-up.

Alternatively, for unevaluated $Text excerpts use ^value($Text.paragraphs(N))^. See ^value^, String.paragraphs.
