Yes, there is a rule. All of the places where you have used underscore, like "er__go" should be hyphens: "er-go" and the last words in both lines ("cernui" and "jubilatio") should both end with an underscore that goes through the last note. Larry in Tampa On Tue, Sep 9, 2014 at 1:56 PM, Son_V

Thanks for the more complete picture. I don't know how you do this in Lilypond, but I think the proper notation is to write two eighth notes and use a dotted tie (indicating that for one verse it's tied (i.e. a quarter note) and for the other verse, it's two separate eighth notes. LK On Thu, Oct
