I wonder if this newline before the eID verse element plus the empty
element itself is being converted into a newline and space character by the
OSIS->Plain filter? It would be worth comparing that ending to verse
endings in e.g. the KJV to see if they are similar. And also possibly
worthwhile to compare the results of osis2mod for your SpaRV1865 to what
the compiled KJV module is to see if that newline is preserved.
