You should use <tabular>:

  <tabular ca="l|l">
  first column | second column @
  first column, second row | second column, second row @
  </tabular>

The ca attribute has the same syntax as the cols argument for
the tabular environment in LaTeX; i.e. an `l' represents a
left-aligned column, `r' right-aligned, `c' centered, and `|' a
vertical line between columns.

I don't think this is documented anywhere -- I learned about it from
the SGML source of the Hardware-HOWTO.
