Correctly formatted text

in your frame, if you go upright and do your work well. This
old man never knew how to do it well, and he stoops, and he
hangs his scythe wrong; but, with all this, it must be a surprising
man to mow short-grass, as well as he does, at <i>eighty</i>. <i>I
wish I</i> may be able to mow short-grass at eighty! That's all
I have to say of the matter. I am just setting off for the source

Marked for different reasons

"eighty" and "I wish I" seem to be emphasized for different reasons, so they are marked separately. (Judgement call?)

Italics across multiple sentences

They are not marked separately because of the intervening period, and there will be cases where a single italics "phrase" begins in the middle of one sentence and ends in the middle of another sentence, with the period inside. This is not one of those cases, and this period falls outside.
