	If you can find the old ones (Good luck! Tell us where if you 
do!), you might go to Bookmarks > Edit Bookmarks > File > Import 
Bookmarks; choose File; and tell it where you found them.

	You might, repeat *might*, be able to do something like what I 
do; but nota bene that I use Opera as my main stash (because I can file 
them any way I like there, and only there), copying all important ones to 
it. I export from Opera to Konqueror, and then from Konqueror to Epiphany.

	That same Epiphany File choice offers something called "Mozilla 
default profile" -- which might be anything, afaik. The folder Default 
in .mozilla contains another called 8vd4g5sz.slt (at least on my 
machine), which contains a file called bookmarks.html; the last can be 
opened with Epiphany....
