Dear all, and especially وفا,
I'm using bidipoem's traditionalpoem environment to typeset a Syriac
madrasha. The metre of many madrashe mixes couplets, which are usually
set on a single line with a gap between the two halves, and single
lines. Traditional poem is great at setting the couplets, but how do I
mark up the single lines so that their ends match the two ends of the
couplets? Here's one stanza from the madrashe:
\begin{traditionalpoem}
ܦܬܚ ܠܢ ܢܚܙܝܘܗܝ&ܐܦ ܢܗܠ ܒܗ\\
ܢܥܢܐ ܘܢܐܡܪ&ܕܐܝܟܘ ܚܝܠܟ\\
ܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܘܡ̈ܬܐ ܬܠܬܐ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ\\
ܘܢܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܘ ܬܠܝܬܝܐ&ܕܠܪܒܝܥܝܐ ܠܠܥܙܪ\\
ܐܚܝܐ ܐܚܐ ܠܩܢܘܡܟ&ܦܬܚ ܡܘܬܐ ܬܪ̈ܥܝܗ̇ ܕܫܝܘܠ\\
ܘܐܙܠܓ ܡܢܗ̇&ܙܝܘܐ ܕܦܪܨܘܦܗ ܕܡܪܢ\\
ܘܐܝܟ ܣܕܘܡ̈ܝܐ ܒܠܥܘ ܗܘܘ\\
ܡܫܘ ܘܒܥܘ ܬܪܥܗ̇ ܕܫܝܘܠ ܕܐܒܕ ܠܗ̇
\end{traditionalpoem}
Thanks,
Gareth.
