Arne can best give the wisp answer, but here is what I would expect:

1.:
foo bar
 . aaa bbb ccc
 . ddd eee
=>
(foo bar aaa bbb ccc ddd eee)


2.:

foo bar
 . aaa bbb . ccc
 . ddd eee
Error.  Period after leading period.

Perhaps more interestingly, I would expect this:
foo bar
  aaa bbb ccc
  . ddd eee fff
  ggg hhh
=>
(foo bar (aaa bbb ccc) ddd eee fff (ggg hhh))
