Thank you. This worked perfectly.

However, there is an awkwardness in how this is shown in LyX.
Doing what Riki said shows, to the left of the citation, a small glyph
producing the horizontal fill.  The citation appears to be on the left
but prints correctly to the right.  At other times a horizontal fill
shows as a horizontal line and the text moves to the right.
