Mark, Davie, Lukas-Fabian -
This has to be the single best user discussion list of all time. Within
20 minutes I have THREE excellent responses. I have long appreciated
this community, but, really, this blows me away.
My thanks to you all!

Greetings -
Returning to the piano after a 50+ year absence (yes the heart has
grown fonder), I am engraving my first piano score - a copy of an
existing score.
The second voice ("VOICE THREE" BELOW) in the base clef is supposed
to enter on the beat 1 of the measure 3. Instead, Lilypond prints 3
full-measure rests instead of the intended 2, and this is entering on
beat 3 of measure 3.
I can make no sense of this. Reviewing the documentation for well over
an hour has been fruitless. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?

#(set-global-staff-size 20) % 20 is said to be standard for most scores

\header {
title = "O for thy spirit, holy John" %centered below dedication
subsubtitle = \markup { "( version" \date")" } %centered below
subtitle - used as both composition date and ascension number for the
coposition.
composer = \markup \center-column {"Flor Peeters"} %flush right
}
