You define
verba = \lyricmode { 4 2 4 4 2 4 4 }
i.e. naked durations in lyricmode.
This comes out as note-events, see:
\void \displayMusic \verba
Put in the text you wish.

In mensural-ligature-engraver.cc there's the comment about "ligature-flexa"
/*
flexa requested, check whether allowed:
- there should be a previous note
- both of the notes must be of brevis shape
(i.e. can't be maxima or flexa;
longa is forbidden as well - it's nonexistent anyway)
- no compulsory flexa for the next note,
i.e. it's not an ultimate descending breve
*/
Strictly following it, the second one below shouldn't be possible:
chant = \relative c {
\clef bass
\set Score.timing = ##f
\set Score.defaultBarType = "-"
\[ c\breve
\override NoteHead.ligature-flexa = ##t
\once \override NoteHead.flexa-width = #30
\once \override NoteHead.color = #red
f,\breve \]
\[ c'\longa
\override NoteHead.ligature-flexa = ##t
\once \override NoteHead.flexa-width = #30
\once \override NoteHead.color = #red
f,\breve \]
}
\score {
\new Voice = "melody" \chant
\layout {
\context { \Staff
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
\override NoteHead.style = #'baroque
}
\context { \Voice
\remove "Ligature_bracket_engraver"
\consists "Mensural_ligature_engraver"
}
}
}
But I'm running out of my depth for both, ancient music (what may
occur and what not) and cc-knowledge.
Maybe others may be of more help.
Cheers,
Harm
