Here is an example, as short as I could make it:
\version "2.14.2"
\include "gregorian.ly"
\paper {
paper-width = 28\mm
left-margin = 0\mm
right-margin = 0\mm
}
chant = { f' f' f' f' f' \finalis }
verba = \lyricmode { bla -- bla -- bla -- bla -- bla }
\score {
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "melody" \chant
\new Lyrics = "one" \lyricsto melody \verba
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\remove Bar_engraver
\remove Time_signature_engraver
}
}
}
For the above the first line is broken after three "bla"-s and the hyphen of the
last "bla" sticks out completely on the right.
