Dear Robert, your example could be much more minimal without the music and just with a markup command. What you are looking for is \super but you also need \concat to avoid space between the '5' and the 'ths' or a full stop. So this could help you:
\markup \line { "Sometimes hidden parallel" \concat { "5" \super "ths" } "can be tolerated. The same goes for parallel" \concat { "8" \raise #-0.7 \super "ves" "." } } For my eyes, the vertical position is too high, so I lowered the 'ves' by 0.7 units, you can also use that for the 'ths'.
