title: Python auto docstring with sphinx new line
body: <p>I am wondering how can I have a new line when generating auto documentation using Sphinx.

  <pre><code>""" This is the first sentences 
  | this is the second sentence at line 2 ... note that vertical bar 
  | this is the second sentence at line 3 ... note that vertical bar 
  ...... 
  def function1 (input):
      """ this function docstring starts here
      | this is not sentence number 2 at the vertical bar is not working 
      | this is not sentence number 3 at the vertical bar is not working 
      | this is not sentence number 4 at the vertical bar is not working 
  """
  </code></pre>
