A river in justified text is if there is an empty area of a
paragraph. Like this:

   Lorem  ipsum dolor  sit amet,  consetetur sadipscing  elitr,  sed diam
   nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat,
   sed diam voluptua.  At vero eos et accusam et justo  duo dolores et ea
   rebum. Stet  clita kasd gubergren,  no sea takimata sanctus  est Lorem
   ipsum  dolor  sit  amet.   Lorem  ipsum  dolor  sit  amet,  consetetur
   sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy  eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et 
   dolore  magna  aliquyam  erat,  sed  diam voluptua.  At  vero  eos  et    |
   accusam et justo duo dolores et ea   rebum.  Stet clita   kasd  guber-    |

   uptua.  At  vero  eos   et  accusam         et justo  duo  dolores  et    |
   ea rebum. Stet  clita kasd gubergren,     no sea takimata sanctus  est    |
   Lorem ipsum  dolor sit amet.   Lorem ipsum dolor sit  amet, consetetur 
   sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy  eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et 
   dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua.  At vero eos et accusam 
   et justo  duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet  clita kasd gubergren,  no sea 
   takimata sanctus  est Lorem

The lines marked with "|" contain a river. It is considered bad
typeography to have rivers in your parapraphs.
