I need to chop a text adding tree dots at the end "..." the three dots should appear only on the second line of the text. This jsfiddler show the example for one line, but I not able to display two lines of text before adding dots. Any idea how to solve it?

#test {
background:#eee;
border:1px dotted #ccc;
margin:1em;
padding:5px;
width:100px;
height:200px;
}
.crop {
overflow:hidden;
white-space:nowrap;
text-overflow:ellipsis;
width:200px; }
<div id="test" class="crop">
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged

The text-overflow property specifies how overflowed content that is not displayed should be signaled to the user. It can be clipped, display an ellipsis (...), or display a custom string.
To add an ellipsis in the HTML <span> element having the CSS overflow property set to “hidden”, you need to add the text-overflow property. Use its “ellipsis” value, which will add dots at the end of the content within the <span>.
The Unicode and HTML Entities for Bullet Points Then type the 2022 number in, and then add a semi-colon. So, it becomes • . Apart from the • Unicode character, you can also use • and • HTML entitles to show bullets or dot symbols on the web page.
